Hi,

I've told about a convention named 'Micht' that i think it is in the SEF system, to play when your p opens by 1NT and it is overcalled with an artificial 2-suiters like Cappelletti, DONT, etc; but i cannot find nothing about it on Internet.

Anyone have notes about this convention or another one to play when 1NT has been overcalled by an artificial 2-suiters?

Lebenshol works fine against one suit overcall, i think.
So, what to do when it is overcalled with a 2-suiters?

Ty very much.

Hi,

1) If one suit is know, e.g. DONT 2C
clubs are known, the other suit is unknown,
treat the overcall as a one suited overcall,
i.e. Lebensohl sequences apply,

2) If both suits are know, e.g. DONT 2H, hearts and spades
are known play unusual versus unusual
bidding the lower ranking of their suit shows a good
hand with the lower ranking of the other two suits,

bidding the higher ranking of their suit shows a good
hand with the higher ranking of the other two suits

Direct bids of the suits are weaker.

2NT can still be used as artificial.

The above method is not perfect, giving up the suits they
bid, may be awkward sometimes, especially, if they
overcall 4 card suits xxxx (... as is done by myself), but
the method is easy.

With kind regards
Uwe Gebhardt

What I learned from that page is that the French don't have their own word for cue-bid.

They will tell you that they intelligently inserted the word cue-bid into the English language so the English think that. The French have a word for everything, by definition.
