Hand Evaluation and Opening Bids
Bridge bidding is not an exact science, but with 2/1 GF bidding we will come one step closer. When the bidding is opened in one of a major (1M) and partner makes a 2/1 bid of 2 of a lower ranking suit (such as 1H - 2D) the partnership is now in a game forcing auction and cannot stop short of game. If you made an unstructured opening bid in 1st or 2nd seat and partner makes a 2/1 game forcing bid, you cannot now pass or call partner off of game. There has to be more structure and discipline when opening and responding in the 2/1 GF bidding system.
This class teaches initial hand evaluation and opening bids in 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th seats. At the conclusion of this class participants should understand:
1. How to evaluate initial hand values.
2. How to quantify/qualify opening hands.
3. Rules for making structured opening bids in 1st or 2nd seat.
4. The difference between 3rd seat and 4th seat opening bids.
