I am looking for a partner who plays either 2/1 or SAYC, using the following conventions: Jacoby 2nt, splinters, nmf, inverted minors, support x, neg x to 3s, gerber after any NT, xfers to Majors/minors, Texas xfers, RKC 0314, Capelletti, lavinthal or odd/even discards, Western cue bids, OGUST, Lebensohl. I'm flexible and will yield to partner's preferences.

I live in New York City and play f2f at Honors when I have a partner. It would be wonderful to pair up with someone in NY to play f2f in addition to playing online at BBO. I'm one of the original members of Swangames, a very small and friendly online bridge site.

I look forward to some good bridge games.

Perhaps we can give it a try ... sometimes when both online or if you send me a message as to when we could try, Email me ... I go onto BBO randomly. Feel free to look at my profile (salty1)and/or I can send you my ACBL card. I also tried Swan many years ago, but did not like it, primarily the interface.

I am also looking for a partner to play 2/1. I am retired in Westminster Maryland, a small town NW of Baltimore. The BBO games may be a good way to practice, even if distance normally keeps us from F2F playing. Very few players in my area play 2/1. I have to travel to Baltimore to find an infrequent 2/1 partner.
You appear to be a fan of Larry Cohen from your list. I can play the conventions you have listed. My 2/1 game is mostly from Audrey Grant with the forcing 1NT style from Marty Bergen.
I also play inverted minors, NMF Bergen style, Reverse Drury, Convenient minor opening, Strong 2C open with 80% 2 diamond waiting, weak jump shifts, a defined double system, Michaels and unusual NT, Controls, The LAW in competition, Stayman; puppet & crawling by Bergen, & garbage.
If interested, I can send you a description of my 2/1 style bids and incorporate the conventions you have mentioned. I am an avid reader of bridge information and have a good written interpretation of the conventions that I play. I find that there are many variations of common conventions that most partnerships do not discuss in advance. I am very flexible on conventions. I prefer to stick with the convention guidelines written by the experts. Feel free to call me to discuss at 410-857-7541.
Thanks in advance

I'm looking for an online 2/1 partner. I'm in NY, and used to play at Honors. Let's try playing online and see how it goes?
