Robson's article was specifically about tactics at matchpointed pairs

For the full chapter & verse on defending weak NT vs strong NT you need to read my artcile in August english bridge.


I look forward to reading it.

SBU. Local congress. Match-pointed pairs final. Experienced players in regular partnerships. Facts not in dispute (director is reading book beside table). Skeleton system-cards but both sides summarise their system, including opening 1N ranges before playing a board. Over East's 1N opener, South hestitates for a few seconds and asks the range. West says "11-14". South and West pass. North doubles. When asked, South says "Protective". EW draw attention to South's (agreed) hesitation. EW ask the director, who says "play on". Table-result: 1NX-2 (NS +300). EW claim damage. Your ruling?





Whilst not quite the typical 'French Defence' to a Weak NT opening to signify holding a 12-14 count hand

It is still UI
