#1: 1♠. Would love it if 1♦ was Herbert, making 1♠ show value.

#2: 1♥.

And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

1) 1♠
2) 1♥

Both of these seem clear.
That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

1. 1♠ - lots of clubs out there so there will be more bidding

2. 2♥ - I have a pile of garbage. This doesn't approach a 1 bid for me.
