#1 Missing in the explanation is, what does "good" / "bad" suit mean.

#2 You can also add, that a "6" (or whatever) is considered high most of the time, and a card lower
than that is considered low.
The partnership will have a cut off point implicit defined, it will have an agreement, what high
spot card is considered an honor, common is to treat the "10" as honor, but your agreement set may
vary.
If you see 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 on the table, you may also point out, that he may not have a lower one.

On a general note: You not only have the responsibility to explain your methods, you have the
responsibility to explain your methods in such a way, that the person who receives the information
understands your explanation.

With kind regards
Marlowe


Some partnerships may have an agreement about a 'cut off' point, implicitly or explicitly. They should say so if they do.
Some partnerships, mine included, explicitly do not. A 3 may be high, and a 10 may be low.
