These are the conventions that we play and you may want to know of  in advance.

Our 2 spade opening shows at least 5-5 in one major and one minor, 6-10 hp.
- Your defensive methods should not include 'wait-a-while' because with bad cards
responder often just passes.
- You should decide what double says about spades. Responder often passes a double of
2 spades. It's the player who is last in turn who escapes.
Therefore: 2 S - (P) - P - (Dou); P does not show spades.

Our 2 diamond opening shows 6-10 hp with one major. Not vulnerable we have a fivecard
suit more often than we have a sixcard suit.
-	Also here can responder pass with uninteresting cards.

We sometimes uses transfers in competitive auctions.
1 C -	(1 D) -	Dou	shows at least 8 hp and at least 4+ hearts.
		1 H	shows at least 8 hp and at least 4+ spades.
		1 S	is a transfer  to 1 NT. (11-13  BAL may bid a fivecard minor.)
	(1 H) -	Dou	shows at least 8 hp and at least 4+ spades.
		1 S	is a transfer  to 1 NT. (11-13  BAL may bid a fivecard minor.)
	(1 S) -	Dou	is a transfer  to 1 NT. (11-13  BAL may bid a fivecard minor.)
1 D/H/S -	(Dou)	we use transfers from 1 NT to 2 in openers suit.
			 2 below openers suit shows a good simple raise.
(1 natural C/D/H) -	1 D/H/S - (Dou)	here we use transfers in the same way.
