An Honors Book from Master Point Press. Author Ken
Rexford has developed an intriguing new approach to
overcalling 1NT openings that may revolutionize this
area of bridge. If you are unhappy with Cappelletti,
DONT, Brozel, and the like, this book introduces you to
a new approach for tackling the opponent's 1NT opening,
with an entirely new way to handle one or two-suited
hands. Can your current approach tell partner whether
you have a strong or a weak overcall at the two-level?
Can you tell partner which suit of your major-or-a-minor
is longer? Can you identify the specific minor with your
major, again at the two-level? All of these are possible
using Ken Rexford's methods. Imagine describing more
hands than the Woolsey defense handles, all with easy
but novel methods that fit (unlike Woolsey) into the
ACBL's General Convention Chart! You can also use these
methods to improve your response structure to your own
openings and in other auctions. Imagine hearing a Four
Diamond overcall of partner's Two Clubs opening and
being able to describe any one suit at game or any
two-suited holding, all without giving up a cooperative
double. Impossible? Not with this new technique. Can you
show one or both minors and slam interest after a 2NT
opening, and tell partner which specific minor you have,
at the three-level? Yes, using Rexford's methods. |
