After the opposing double, the conventional bids are as follows.
Bid | Meaning |
---|---|
Pass | Requires partner to make an artificial redouble. Shows either a good hand that wants to play 1NT redoubled, OR a one-suited hand (5+ cards). After partner's redouble, all bids at the 2-level are natural and non-forcing. |
Redbl | Shows one of the following two-suiters:
After hearing the redouble, partner must choose which action to take:
|
2 | Shows clubs and hearts (at least 4-4). Partner can pass with club tolerance, or correct to |
2 | Shows diamonds and hearts (at least 4-4). |
2 | Shows hearts and spades (at least 4-4). |
2 | 5+ spades. Depending on partnership agreement, this may be weaker than a redouble followed by a 2 rebid. Alternatively, it may promise more strength than the redouble sequence. Either way, it's still non-forcing. |
Brozel escapes are a modification of the Brozel convention, which was invented by Bernard Zeller.
