Defense to Multi 2
devised by Danny
Kleinman
After an opening Multi 2 by
opponents, calls in direct seat show:
- Double = takeout of
weak 2
- 2 =
hearts and a minor
- 2
=
spades and a minor - 2NT = takeout of weak 2
- 3
/3 = natural - 3/3 = natural and strong (good
enough suit to be confident it's not opener's)
- 3NT = natural, usually based on running minor
- 4 =
strong: clubs and hearts (Leaping Michaels)
- 4 =
strong: diamonds and hearts (Leaping Michaels)
Delayed calls show:
- Double = strong balance
- 2 =
natural
- 2NT = minors
- 3 =
clubs and four cards in the major opener doesn't have
- 3 =
diamonds and four cards in the major opener doesn't have
- 3/3 = natural
- 4 =
strong: clubs and spades (Leaping Michaels)
- 4 =
strong: diamonds and spades (Leaping Michaels)
