Stew wants to play wild weak two bids, when not vulnerable at matchpoints, and
I have been trying it out.  Our card is marked 3 to 9 HCP, with the idea that
10 HCP and a 6-card suit is good enough to open one of a major; we play
Precision and open with a Bergen rule of 19.

Furthermore, a 5-card suit is common for a weak two bid in this situation.  To
sort this out, we play modified Ogust rebids over responder's 2NT:  3\C=all
5-carders, 3\D=bad hand, 3\H=medium, 3\S=good.

This definitely lets us bid more often, but it has a cost.  Stew was afraid to
compete over 3\D, fearing I had a stinker.  I considered reopening with 3\H on
my fine hand, but bidding again after a preempt is very poor style.  As a
result. we yielded a partscore swing.  In fact, we make game in either major,
due to the favorable location of the \DK.

{

With 18 Bergen points (8 HCP and 10 cards in the two longest suits) and no
aces, I did not feel my hand warranted a 1\H opening bid.  I feel strongly that
there is no zone between 1\H and 2\H, where hands are passed.  Stew says to get
in there, non-vulnerable at matchpoints, so I bid 2\H.  This effectively
muzzled Stew with his void in my suit, so we missed a slam!  And they made 2\S!
 Maybe I was supposed to back in with my good second suit.

This is two failures out of many weak two bids.  I have not been keeping track
of our successes on other boards.  I definitely have my doubts about wild weak
two bids.
