Contract Type FiledMay 31st, 2021When opener begins with a bid of 1 heart or 1 spade, responder’s answer of 1NT forces opener to bid again for one round. The point count for a response of 1NT is 6 to 12, or, to be even more accurate, from a good 5 points to a weak 12 points. Please note that a 1NT response to a minor is NOT forcing. 1NT is forcing only when the opening suit is a major suit.
