2/1 is a popular variation of the Standard American bidding system. This system helps the players to get to the best game contract or explore Slam possibilities at a lower level. We also introduce the response of 1NT as a forcing bidding to improve the part score contracts. Each class will have practice hands to help experience this modification.

Optional: (This course is for bridge players who are comfortable with Standard American bidding and want to improve/advance their bidding to include 2/1) Audrey Grant's 2/1 textbook is needed which can be obtained thru Amazon, Bridge Baron supplies, or one's local library.
