Ty so much for the feedback

Not sure what to use 1c-2c for, we just always played it as weak. At the moment we don't want to add some sort of deep relay auction for it, however more efficient. Memory overload.



"1♣-2♥ and 1♣-1♥-1♠-2♥. The later may be better especially with 2/3♣ You also have 1♣-1♠-1N/2♣-2♥/2♠ available if you want to start differentiating ranges."


Not sure how best to use these auctions. We do play full XYZ.


As for interference from opponents, excellent suggestions in the expert forum, just way too complicated and memory work, right now.

For now partner prefers to not use transfers over interference and just go the natural, old fashion way for now. However those suggestions are on the to do list, later....

I'm with you on transfers over interference and have yet to progress to that trying a new TW approach with a partner.

I have been playing
1-1-1-1N/2-2 as weak 54xx
1-1-1N/2-2 as game invitational 54xx
and playing transfers up the line
1-2 6+ weak or 5+ game forcing, now after transfer completion
.. 2N shows 5 & partner can either raise, ask for a 2nd suit or show their own shape with long
.. higher bids show 6 & shape, plus what's good is this broadly recycles the responses I play over 2-2N so helping with the memory load
