OPENING BIDS OF TWO The current E.B.U. instructions are that the strength of opening two bids must be announced. Many players announce opening multi-two and weak two bids but it would appear that some assume that strong opening two bids do not need to be announced. Please note that ALL opening two level bids, whether weak, strong or intermediate, must be accompanied by an announcement of the strength of the bid from the opener’s partner. Opening bids which are an accepted convention, such as the Opening Two Clubs, should be alerted as usual.
