I greatly prefer natural new suit forcing. The only advantage NMF has is that a rebid of 2 Hearts is not forcing and the partnership can play in hearts without getting too high.
Adam. On the hand where the bidding is: 1C. 1H, 1NT. - 2H, at the 7:20 mark, the responder is showing 14 cards. S T83, H AQ875, D 95, C Q542. This needs to be corrected.
"Checkback" (always bidding Clubs rather than the "New" minor) is used in the same situation... Is there any advantage/disadvantage compared to "New minor forcing" Interesting fact: Nmf (or "checkback") achieve what Stayman and transfers achieve those playing Weak NT hands (12-14 HCP).
I have been trying to get the responses to this convention clear in my mind, and your video really helped! Like your teaching style. Thanks!
great lesson! I am a stranger, and you explain not too fast, I can follow you. Thank you very much
Very good analysis!!! Thanks!!!😊
Nice clear lesson. Just need to remember the sequence with my partner.
I learned NMF watching this 3-part series a while back and wanted to review it again, this but parts 2 &3 are no longer on UA-cam!
Thanks … really enjoy your lesson
