- Argine's 2/1 feels unfinished.
- By the way, I think Kevin is referring to 1X - 2♣ being GF, not to 2♣ openers. With respect to 2♣ openers, common N. America style is 2♦ waiting, then 2NT = NF, 2M/3m being natural F1. After 2♣-2♦-2M/3♣, often the cheaper ...
- Argine's 2/1 feels unfinished.
- Yes, I was saying: 1) 2♣ opener is not 100% GF in American 2/1 (typically), but Argine follow-ups do not appear to allow a GF continuation (e.g., 2♣ - 2♦ - 2♠ - P is a possible Argine auction) 2) Separately, I was also saying that 1NT ...
- Argine's 2/1 feels unfinished.
- Yes, there are many differences between Funbridge's 2/1 system and more standard American 2/1. The implementation of the 2♣ opener is one problem, as it is only F1 and I think you can't initiate a GF, because (I guess) it is more common in France ...
- Winston Chang's bidding problem: AKQ842 J 8 J8765
- Natural
- Winston Chang's bidding problem: AQT8 K63 A93 K96
- Actually, the same strong pair described in the other problem.
- Winston Chang's bidding problem: KJ8765 AJ53 Q93 ---
- Yes, EW do play support doubles.
- Winston Chang's bidding problem: AJ543 AQ5 K3 J52
- The actual auction ended up 1♣ (2♥) 2♠ 3♠ 3NT 4♠; South took 3NT as nonserious 3NT (played by this pair when an 8-card major fit is found with both partners' ranges not narrowly defined). 4♠ went down, 3NT had 9 top tricks and ...
- Winston Chang's lead problem: AQ63 54 982 JT32
- At least 3 ♣ and at least 4 ♥. Could be 3433, 3424, 2425, 3415 etc. Clubs could be as bad as 654, as a lot of people here bid mechanically based on shape.

- @Max, I think proper scouting is important. Usually the #1 seed in the GNT out of the Swiss just picks whoever did worst in the Swiss (and still qualified), even though it might have been a relatively good team that had a poor day. In 2016, a strong D21 team ...

- That is strange -- I can't revert my system back to that stage, so I don't know. According to their FAQs, there is supposed to be a "Create an Account" button that you use, enter your name and email for verification, and that's it, but it seems like ...
