General Bidding Style
| General: 5533 2/1 with variable NT ranges. 14-16 except 3rd red and 4th where 1N shows 15-17. We upgrade/downgrade frequently within a point of normal range.
Openings: Aggressive white; all 11s and some 10s. We invite heavy and accept light. 3rd seat can be very light and 1M might be a 4cM. Responding style: We respond light. Our jumpshifts are sound, on the heavy side. Preempts: Vulnerability and seat dependent. 1st seat favorable is highly undisciplined. Vulnerable we have good suits. 3rd is wide-ranging. 4th seat is not preemptive (2 level is 6+cards and 12-15, 3 level is a distributional invitation to game). Overcalling: Aggressive. Nothing is out of the realm of possibility. We might have a 4 card suit. New suits are NFC. Jumps are natural and forcing. 2/1 GF: Natural-ish continuations. After 1M - 2m - 2M is default. |
Opening Leads AND Leads in the Middle of the Hand
| Leads Vs NT:
2nd/4th length leads Rusinow Honors from 3+ K = Power AQ = ATT Leads Vs Suits; 3rd/low length leads Rusinow from 3+ Exceptions to Rusinow against suits and NT: When we preempt and lead a side suit Dummy’s Suit Partner’s Suit Declarer’s suit When opponents have preempted the auction and we might be leading an unsupported honor Leads in the middle of the hand: ATT mostly but if count is relevant we lead 3rd/5th. |
