GENERAL PRINCIPLES FOR THE COMPETITIVE AUCTION DOUBLE Our doubles are generally all TO at all levels at least when doubler has not shown length in the suit. We use the PD at low levels only when one of us has shown given a penalty pass. In penalty situations when we know we have balanced hands and we hold a certain majority of the points we utilize the double to suggest partner pass with length in the suit. One doesn't make a double if one doesn't want partner to convert to penalty. PENALTY DOUBLE ( PD ) Despite the many TO doubles there are standard situations in which doubles are penalty : a) Partner has opened a preempt b) We have made a Penalty Pass over a TO double of a suit or NT bid higher than 1NT c) The double of a suit in which the doubler has shown 5+ cards d) We have already made a PD DOUBLE WHEN WE HAVE FOUND A FIT When we are in a forcing situation the double of an enemy suit shows a SGL in that suit. If this happens beyond the 3-level of our suit then double is invitation to slam. When the opponents bid their suit under the level of our cheapest competitive raise then the double shows extra strength or good defensive cards. After two PASSES the double can be necessary with many types of special hands if one want to give partner the chance to convert to penalty. * 1ΧΑ (οι αντίπαλοι)-π-2 (τράνσφερ)-2 = διχρωμία + μινέρ * Άνοιγμα 3ΧΑ=διχρωμία σε μινέρ * Μετά από απάντηση 5ΧΑ (2Α+σικάν) αγορά στο επίπεδο 6 ζητάει να αγορασθεί το μεγάλο σλεμ εφόσον είναι αυτό το σικάν, σε αντίθετη περίπτωση αγοράζουμε το σικάν εφόσον είναι δυνατόν ή το χρώμα των ατού.

3 = 6 +4 MIN 3 = One-suited 3NT = 6 MIN 11.MODIFIED JACOBY 2NT After our 1-MAJ opening and 2NT response (Game-Forcing 4+-card raise): 4 of our MAJOR = the absolute worst dreck imaginable (always 5-3-3-2) 3 = any other minimum (could be 5-3-3-2, but at least some redeeming feature) 3 = non-minimum, with a side singleton or void somewhere 3 =non-minimum, any 5-4-2-2 distribution 3 = non-minimum, 6+ trumps (no singletons or voids) 3NT= non-min., 5-3-3-2 (you can use this to show a HCP range such as 18-19) 4 new suit = decent 5-card side suit (nat.--should have ace or king) Follow-ups: If responder ever jumps to game in the major, it is a sign-off--no further interest. If responder still has slam interest, he can ask further as follows: AFTER opener's 3 : Responder bids 3 to ask, then (note the similarity to the original responses by opener): 4 of our MAJOR = 5-3-3-2 min., but not total dreck (maybe nice controls) 3 = minimum, with a side singleton or void somewhere 3 = minimum, any 5-4-2-2 distribution 3NT= minimum, 6+ trumps (no singletons or voids) 4 new suit = min., decent 5-card side suit (natural--should have ace or king) (After opener's 3 or 3 answer to 3, next step asks, using same schedule as below) AFTER opener's 3 : Responder bids 3 to ask, then: Step1=A VOID somewhere Step2= singleton in lowest side suit ( ) Step3 = singleton in next side suit ( ) Step4 = singleton in highest side suit (other major) After Step 1 (VOID) Next bid asks where and S1=, S2=, S3=other major AFTER opener's 3 : Responder bids 3 to ask, then: Step 1= 4 cards in lowest side suit ( ) Step 2 = 4 cards in next side suit ( ) Step 3 = 4 cards in highest side suit (other major) This looks a bit complex, but there isn't too much memory. The first set of answers to 2NT must be memorized. After that, the same principle covers all the memory: Next step asks, and answers are "up-the-line." INTERFERENCE: As stated above, this convention is never on if they interfere after our 1MAJ opening. However, we do need to cope if they interfere after the 2NT response: Opener's double = Shortness in suit doubled Opener's new suits = natural or a control 3NT = Balanced Maximum (Ace or King in their suit) Opener's Pass = Nothing special--flat hand, could be 5x3x2 awful after which, responder's X=penalty Opener's jump to 4M = dead minimum, but 6x3x2 If they double Asks or re-asks : XX = business, Pass=S1, etc. If they bid after Ask or re-ask:x=penalty, Pass=S1, etc.(except when double=short as above)

If 9 HCP and only six in M, AKQ in suit or KQ in suit & an outside ace.otherwise if 8/9 HCP, 7+ in M and some defensive values. After 2M: 2 /3 : 5+ s, Forcing. 3 or 3 rebid by responder GI. 2NT: Asks, 3, 3 : Either natural, GF, 6+ in suit or mild GI in M and values/length in m. With hand that would not accept mild GI, opener bids 3M or below, descriptively if possible; now a bid of 3M by responder shows the mild GI hand type and all other bids are the GF with 6+ in m. Opener bids 4m if would accept mild GI in M and has at least two cards in m. Bids above 3M not including 4m show a hand that would accept a mild GI, but is short in m. Over opener s rebid above 3M, responder s 4M is to play regardless of what opener has, 3NT is also to play, and other bids are cuebids with GF and length in m. Example: 2-3 4-4 is to play, responder perhaps having a mild GI for s with values/length in s. 3M: Mild GI (use 2NT if good GI), but use 3m if concentrated values in a minor. 3 : Forcing with 6+ s. If opener bids 3 it shows a singleton/void in s and a minimum (3NT would show a maximum and short s). 4 / by opener over 3 are cuebids for s; even with second suit opener should bid 3 or 3NT if short in s. The only non-game forcing sequence is 2-3 3 -Pass. 3 : 6+ s, GF, asks opener to bid 3NT if singleton/void in s, and otherwise cuebid or bid 4. 4 : Roman Keycard Blackwood (1430) for M, and after replies, and queen ask if necessary, new suit bids are control asks. 4 : Singleton/void, slam interest in M.

Τώρα η αγορά νέου χρώματος από τον τον ανοίξαντα ζητά από τον απαντητή να δείξει αν έχει 2ο κοντρόλ στο χρώμα αυτό. Οι απαντήσεις είναι όπως ανωτέρω. ΑΝ ο ανοίξας σε κάποιο στάδιο ξαναγοράσει χρώμα στο οποίο δεν του έδειξαν κοντρόλ δεδομένου βαθμού, τότε ζητά κοντρόλ κατώτερου βαθμού (έτσι αν η αγορά πήγε 2ΣΠ-2Κ/3Π-3ΧΑ/4Κ-4Π/5Κ αυτή ρωτά για 3ο κοντρόλ στα καρώ). ΑΝ ρωτάει σε χρώμα που δεν του αρνηθήκανε, τότε ρωτάει για κοντρόλ του ίδιου γύρου (έτσι στη σειρά του πιο πάνω παραδείγματος, αν η τελευταία επαναγορά του ανοίξαντος είναι 5 Κούπες, αυτό ρωτάει για 2ο κοντρόλ στις κούπες.
