- Building a bidding system
- Worth it! Gave me some interesting ideas as well as made me think about what is important when designing pieces of kit.
- 26th European Youth Teams - 8 to 15 July 2017
- What's the tea situation like?
- Steve Moese's bidding problem: --- JT63 KQ65 AKJ64
- Would 2♠ not be a pattern out? Although I guess that could be 3415? 4♠ would be quite descriptive if 1♥ is limited, but then by hearts aren't great.
- I think I played poker.
- The director is called if the claim is contested.
- I think I played poker.
- Play ceases.
- Steve Moese's bidding problem: --- JT63 KQ65 AKJ64
- I wonder what 3♠ or even 4♠ would show?

- I was once interested in this question of what range is most common after 3 passes. Very roughly I assumed either 3 weak twos/Multi with two suited 2M bids and just looked at what would happen on each hand. I think 13-15 was the most frequent, then 14-16.
