Opener’s Rebids: Strong Unbalanced 2-suited Opening Hands

Powered By bridgebee


Strong Unbalanced 2-Suited Openings
As Opener, when we have a strong 2-suited hand then we communicate both our shape and strength to partner. We do so by making a strong jump shift or a reverse. Let's see how we use these bidding tools to show our strong 2-suited opening hands. You (and your partners) can sign up for Robert Todd's This Week in Bridge (TWiB) lesson emails for free at

Powered By bridgebee


After Responder’s Freebid
As Opener, when we open the bidding with a suit, LHO makes an overcall of a suit, and Responder freely bids a new suit then we are forced to make a rebid. Here we look at our rebid options in detail and discuss what each of these bids show in both shape and strength. Most importantly we discuss which bids are forcing and which can be passed.
