Question: What should minimum point count be for a weak 2
opening bid ?
Glenna:
South did NOT have a good weak 2-bid!!! It’s ok with the right hand to open
with 5-10 high card points (HCP) or 5-11 HCP. BUT the suit has to be good. If the ♥️ suit was KQxxxx or AQxxxx it would be okay. So more
important than point count is how good the suit is!!! Do not open
horrible suits. Non-vulnerable (NV) vs. vulnerable (V) you could have as few as 5-7 HCP. If you are V vs. NV, you
should have 9-11 HCP.
Good players who have 6-card Majors open 1 of the Major and rebid 2 with as few
as 11, Again look at V or NV. They assume the 6-card good major should be
opened. A lot to consider.
