I mentioned abit earlyer about a 2 S answer to 1 H opening as a DROP bid. Since we are speaking about Jacoby 2 NT , in the system I mentioned you about the continuations are as follow : 3 C - minimal without shortness 3 D - maximal without shortness 3 H - singleton in C 3 S -singleton in D 3 NT -singleton in the other major strain 4 C - good hand in C with 5+ cards 4 D - good hand in D with 5+ cards 4 H -good hand in with 5+ cards the other major What is your aproach ?
Hi Bogdan. I recommend weak jump shifts if you are playing 2/1. In this system the 2S shows a very weak hand, probably less than 4 points, with a six card spade suit. Think of it as a very weak 2 bid trying to make things difficult for your opponents. Opener really has no option but to play the new suit at whatever level he thinks reachable. You can also double jump with seven cards and a few more points.
Jad, speaking about 2/1 system , I am abit confused about the following sequence : I am opener withe the folowing hand : Spades : K Q 10 9 ; Hearts : A K J 7 2 ; Clubs : 9 4 2 Diamonds : 7 . I open 1 H , parner answers 1 NT and I rebid 2 Clubs same sequence for the following hand : Spades : A K J 6 ; Hearts : K J 9 8 6 ; Clubs : 9 5 Diamonds : 10 4 . I open 1 H , parner answers 1 NT and I rebid 2 Clubs . Can you elaborate more about that? What if partner Passes or oponents overcall? Could you summarize mora about NT rebidding ( both from the openers and responder s part ) this is the original video : th-cam.com/video/5r5oqorn8uc/w-d-xo.html We definetely should concentrate that info and talk about the 2/1 one system . Keep the good vieos comming !
Hi Bogdan. This is how I look at both these hands. When Partner bids 1NT he is denying 3 hearts and denying 4 spades. So you won’t be playing in a major. You also don’t have a biddable minor suit. Also, Partner is weak and can’t bid a minor. The only place you can play these hands is in NT. How high depends on your points. You may well pass 1NT with a low opening hand. I wouldn’t bid clubs with either of these hands. I haven’t looked at the video you linked as I only comment on my own videos. I hope you enjoy the upcoming 2/1 series.
