1 - (p) - 2 - (DBL)
?


DBL = other two suits. Assuming that without interference, you play the style where rebid of the major is the catchall bid with higher bids promising extras.

What do the following bids mean?

Pass =
Rdbl =
2 =
2 =
2NT =
3 =
3 =

There might be followup questions.

Thanks in advance

I would have thought that XX was seeking to punish and pass ambivalent, all else natural. But, maybe there should be some advantage taken...

Pass= forcing minimum
RDbl= 18-19 balanced or stronger raise than 3D (partner expected to pass)
2S= 6 spades minimum or non-solid
2NT= promises both unbid suits stopped
3D= minimum with 4 card support

All other bids as they mean without the X.

Hi,

I think

# Pass is waiting, it should also promise some tolerance for diamonds
# depending on agreement, XX should generate 100% FP, independ
of level, i.e. it should promise add. strength
# new suits, should show two suiters, at least 5-5
# 2NT as a natural bid does not exist, ... maybe if you are red vs. green
there is a case, but only playing MP, otherwise g for blood

# 3D showes fit


With kind regards
Marlowe
