I played in a club game the other night and came up against some opponents that played a *very* interesting system. They said it was a class "E" system and they only use it in club games. It is basically a forcing 1 Club system that has some interesting 2 level openings. 2 Diamonds, Hearts or Spades shows 12 - 16 points, 4 of the suit and at least 5 Clubs! An opener of 2 Clubs shows 5 (maybe 6) Clubs, 12 - 16 points and no other 4 card suit outside. A 1 Club opening shows 17+ points and 1 NT shows 13-16 HCP, balanced. 1 Heart of 1 Spade is up to 16 points, 5 card suit and 4 or less Clubs. I didn't ask, but I suppose that 1 Diamond is 4+ Diamonds, 4 or less Clubs and too unbalanced for 1NT. Anybody seen this system? How about comments?
