New Minor Forcing

• Bridge Conventions (List)

This is an artificial bid forcing partner to bid again, absent interference by the opposition. After either partner has bid a minor suit, the bid of the other minor is one round forcing.

A bidding convention is an agreement between two players on a different meaning of a bid in the card game bridge. These agreements are made so that partners can more quickly determine which contract, with both their cards, they can win together. Often, conventions are forged together into one, which is then called a bidding system.
