PDF
The choice between Economical/ Jump Two suiter bid
  • The two suiter nid is 'economical', When the second suit bid is lower than the repetition of the first.
  • The jump two suiter : The opener bids his second suit at a level above the lowest level at which it could have been bid (.. jumping a level).
  • The economical two suiter bid is not forcing : could very well pass after you've bid your second suit.
  • The 'Jump' two-suiter is forcing to game : neither you nor your partner can pass until game has been reached.
