[quote name='han' date='Feb 22 2008, 05:00 PM'] [quote name='pclayton' date='Feb 22 2008, 02:25 PM'] I think this is a bad example. Over 2[cl] (2[sp]) P (4[sp]) or similar this hand has an easy 5N bid. [/QUOTE]
5N? I'd take that for the minors.
Why not 5[sp]? [/QUOTE]
I'd bid 6D, leaping Michaels.

Funny you say that.
I wonder, in the long run, whether opening 5[sp] aqs "I have a lot of spades and am making a completely nonsensical call" makes more sense that "I have spades and a minor and a huge player hand; bid 5NT to ask for my minor if you want."
Just wondering...

And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."
