Note added to the rebid of 2m with a six card minor. In this months's ACBL Bulletin (october 2003) on page 31 is a bidding contest between Ron Smith/B. Cohen versus Hugh Ross/Grant Blaze. Hand three Smith and Ross held...

S-AQJT
S-AK8743
D-void
C-963

Both opened 1H, both heard a forcing 1NT response, and yes, both rebid 2C (as I would). The commentator said about this initial response... "No, these auctions are not misprints... 2H woud clearly be an unbid, while 2S and 3H would be overstatements." Exactly the kind of hand I recommended rebidding 2m over 1NT. This doesn't prove the 2m is right, just showing that others use this same logic...even some very good players.
