    INVERTED MINORS

After partner opens one of a minor, a single raise shows the following:-

  • No 4-card major
  • 10 points plus ..no upper limit

Opener replies:-

A) With balanced hand (12 to 14) :-

  • 2  Promises Heart stopper and denies Spade Stop
  • 2  Promises Spade stopper and denies Heart Stop
  • 2NT Promises stops in Majors. May or may not have other minor stop
  • 3NT Promises 18/19 points

B) Unbalanced hands (holding singleton or void)

  • Bid second suit if your hand is 6/4. This MAY be mistaken for showing stopper as above. You will now rebid your minor over a further response from partner of 2NT.

Decide whether to play this system in competition or not
