ONE OFF
When I take a 50-50 chance, I expect it to come off 8 times out of 10 (Hideous Hog)
ONE OFF
Bidding System
We overcall
suit openings on level 1 and 2
Level 1 overcall is lead directing, level 2 overcall shows constructive opening strength, except the sequence (1m) - 2♣, when also weak 5 card suit with 9 HC is enough.
FOL's bids are transfers, when she bids from cue to transfer to INT's suit. The exception is a level 3 cue, which allways asks for ST. Other bids are natural.
Examples:
(1♥) - 1♠
our bids are natural, F1, cue bid shows support, 8+
(1♣) - 1♠
2♣/♦/♥ are transfers,
Following rules apply:
Bids of new suits are F1, NT bids are natural
Raises of INT's suit are competitive.
Jump shift shows 4 card fit and good 5 card suit 2T3H
Jump Cue bid shows 4 card fit, 9+ točk
If RE doubles, our RDBL promises A or K in INT' suit.
If RE bids naturally and we still have transfer available - system ON.
Examples for (1♦) - 1♠ - ?
(DBL)
RDBL = A or K in ♠
other = system on
(2♣)
DBL = 4 card ♥, tolerance for ♠
2♦ = transfer to ♥
2♥ = transfer to ♠, constructive
2♠ = preemptive
other = natural, NF
(2♦)
DBL = transfer to ♥
2♥ = transfer to ♠, constructive
2♠ = preemptive
other = natural, NF
(2♥)
DBL = transfer to ♠, constructive
2♠ = preemptive
other = natural, NF
Same applies for sequences (1x) - pass - (1/2y) - 2yz (both natural).
Examples for (1♦) - 1♠ - (1NT/2x) - ?
We assume the hand belongs to opps. Our bids are the same as above, except:
2♥ = promises 3 card ♠ support with Q or better (does not promise points).
