Polish Club Bidding System

This is a strong club openning system based on 2/1 5 cards major system. System works same as 2/1 system other than 1 Club openning.

1 Club openning is completely artificial, so it should not be passed.

1 Diamond respond is also artificial, so it should not be passed.

1 Diamond openning shows at least 4 cards of Diamond, so 1 Club openning may be with 2 cards of Clubs. Since 1 Club openning denies 5 cards of major and 4 cards of Diamonds, when you open the auction with 1 Diamond, Clubs may be longer.

1 NT/Spade/Heart opennings are the same as in 2/1 system, so the auctions after first tour are not included in the tables.

You can examine three tours of biddings at the tables below.
