ACBL SAYC SYSTEM BOOKLET Revised January 2006 OVERVIEWThe ACBL Standard American Yellow Card (SAYC) was created to be the requiredsystem to be used in a Standard Yellow Card event. The object was to provide asimple, modern method that will lead to a good, solid understanding in a partnershipwhen both players have read this booklet.Because this system was to be used by each pair, the game was free of a widevariety of possibly complex systems. There was no necessity to Alert or askquestions since everyone was playing the same method.When play began on the Internet, players needing a quick way to establish themethod to be used in a relatively casual partnership adopted the SAYC. It is alsoused by players who meet at the partnership desk a few minutes before the gamestarts.Players may still exercise bridge judgment, such as opening a four-card major inthird seat. SAYC “normally five-card majors” approach can withstand an occasionaldeviation. CHOICESWhile there are no choices in the present day SAYC, except for an SAYC event inwhich everyone must play the method as written, a pair could use the SAYC as abase and make one or two modifications. If you do make a modification or two inan open game, you should announce that fact to the opponents – if they think youare playing straight SAYC and they know SAYC, they would not know about yourmodifications. GENERAL APPROACHNormally open five-card majors in all seats.Open the higher of long suits of equal length: 5–5 or 6–6.Normally open 1 with 4–4 in the minors.Normally open 1 with 3–3 in the minors.Notrump openings show a balanced hand and may be made with a five-card majorsuit or a five-card minor suit.1NT = 15–172NT = 20–213NT = 25–27Strong conventional 2 opening.Weak two-bids in diamonds, hearts and spades. RESPONSES AND LATER BIDDING AFTER A 15–17 1NT OPENING2 is “non-forcing” Stayman, meaning that the bidding may stop in two of a suit.Opener rebids 2 with 4–4 in the majors. If responder rebids three of either minor,he shows slam interest and at least a five-card suit.The Jacoby transfer shows a five-card suit and is used for the majors: 2 is atransfer to hearts, 2 is a transfer to spades. Opener accepts the transfer, thoughhe can jump to the three level with 17 points and four-card support for responder’smajor. For example:

1NT — 2 2 = normal acceptance of the transfer. 3 = 17 points and four-card heart support.If, after the transfer is accepted, responder bids a new suit, that is natural andgame forcing. Possible calls after the accepted transfer are: 1NT — 2 2 — Pass = content to play 2. — 2NT, 3 = invitational. Over 2NT opener may pass or bid 3 with a minimum hand; bid 3NT or 4 with a maximum. — 3, 3, 3 = natural and game forcing. — 3NT = giving opener a choice between 3NT and 4. — 4 = placing the contract, with a six-card or longer suit.A 2 response requires the 1NT bidder to rebid 3, which may be passed with aclub bust, or responder may rebid 3 with a diamond bust. Example: 1NT — 2 3 — Pass = club bust — 3 = diamond bust (notrump opener passes).Other responses to 1NT: 1NT — 3, 3 = a six-card or longer suit and invitational to 3NT. — 3, 3 = at least a six-card suit and slam interest (otherwise, responder uses a transfer bid). — 4 = Gerber, asking for aces. 4 IS GERBER OVER ANY 1NT OR 2NT BY PARTNER, INCLUDING A REBID OF 1NT OR 2NT. Responses show the number of aces, by steps, just as over a Blackwood 4NT. 5 is used to ask for kings. Ace Asking King Asking 1NT — 4 1NT — 4 4 = 0 or 4 aces 4x — 5 4 = 1 ace 5 = 0 or 4 kings 4 = 2 aces 5 = 1 king 4NT = 3 aces 5 = 2 kings 5NT = 3 kingsIf the player using Gerber makes any bid other than 5, that is to play(including 4NT). Asking for kings guarantees that the partnership holds all the aces.A direct raise of 1NT to 4NT is natural and invites 6NT. 4NT is slam invitational onlybecause 4 is available as Gerber (to ask about aces). INTERFERENCE AFTER A 1NT OPENING BIDIf an opponent doubles, all conventional responses are “on.” For example: 1NT — (Double) — 2 = Stayman 1NT — (Double) — 2 = transfer to heartsIf an opponent bids over your 1NT opener, conventional responses like Staymanand transfers are “off.” Bids are natural except for a cuebid, which may be used withgame forcing strength as a substitute for Stayman.If the opponents intervene over a conventional response, bids carry the samemeaning as if there were no intervention. A bid says, “I’m bidding voluntarily, so Ihave a real fit with you.” 1NT — (Pass) — 2 — (Double) 2 = Real fit for hearts — pass with only two hearts 2

RESPONSES TO A 2NT OR A 3NT OPENINGStayman and Jacoby transfers for the majors are used. 2NT — 3 = Stayman. — 3, 3 = Jacoby transfers to hearts and spades, respectively. — 4 = Gerber (ace asking). — 4NT = Invites a slam in notrump. 3NT — 4 = Stayman. — 4, 4 = Jacoby transfers to hearts and spades, respectively. RESPONSES AND LATER BIDDING AFTER A 1 OR A 1 OPENING1 and 1 openings show a five-card or longer suit. Responses: 1  — 1 = at least four spades, 6 or more points. Tends to deny a heart fit. — 1NT = 6–9 points, denies four spades or three hearts. NOT forcing. — 2, 2 = 10 points or more, promises at least four of the suit. — 2 = three-card or longer heart support; 6–10 dummy points. — 2NT = Game-forcing raise (Jacoby 2NT), 13+ dummy points. Asks opener to show a short suit to help responder evaluate slam prospects. (see * below) — 2, 3, 3 = strong jump shifts. Invites a slam. — 3 = limit raise (10–11 dummy points with three or more hearts). — 3NT = 15–17 HCP, balanced hand with two-card support for partner. — 4 = usually five+ hearts, a singleton or void, and fewer than 10 HCP.Opener’s rebids are natural and standard.Rebids with a minimum hand (13–15 points): Rebidding notrump at the lowest available level; Raising responder’s suit at the lowest level (may have good three-card support); Rebidding a new suit at the one level or rebidding a new suit at the two level that is lower ranking than the opening suit (not reversing); Rebidding opener’s suit at the lowest level.Rebids with a medium hand (16–18 points): Jump raise of responder’s suit or jump rebid of opener’s suit; Reverse in a new suit, i.e., bid a new suit at the two level which is higher ranking than the opening suit; Non-reverse bid in a new suit (this has the wide range of 13–18 points).With a maximum hand (19–21 or 22 points) opener must make a very strong rebid: Jump in notrump; Double jump raise of responder’s suit or double jump rebid of opener’s suit; Jump shift in a new suit.* If responder jumps to 2NT over a 1 or 1 opening, that is Jacoby 2NT, asking opener to show a singleton or void. If opener has no short suit, he shows his hand strength; 1 — 2NT 3, 3, 3 = singleton or void in that suit. Other bids deny a short suit. 4 = minimum hand. 3NT = medium hand (15–17). 3 = maximum hand (18+) 4, 4 = 2nd suitResponder follows up by attempting to sign off in game, bidding 4NT Blackwood,or cuebidding if still interested in trying to cooperate with opener in making theslam decision. 3

SUBSEQUENT BIDDING BY RESPONDERIf responder has bid a suit at the one level, he next determines whether he wishesto sign off in a partscore, invite game, sign off in game, or force to game and getmore information about opener’s hand.Bids available for a sign-off in partscore: Pass, 1NT, 2 of a previously bid suit. 1 — 1 2 — Pass, 2, 2 = 6–9 points, sign-off in partscore.Bids available for inviting game: 2NT, 3 of a previously bid suit: 1 — 1 2 — 2NT, 3, 3, 3 = 10–11 points, inviting game.After opener rebids in a suit, a new suit by responder is forcing. If the new suit is thefourth suit, the bid may be artificial/conventional. 1 — 1 2 — 2 = one-round force, could be conventional.However, after a 1NT rebid by opener, bids of a new suit at the next higher level arenon-forcing. 1 — 1 1NT — 2, 2 = non-forcing. Responder must jump shift to 3 or 3 to force game.Second-round forcing bids following a 1NT rebid by opener: a reverse or jump shiftinto a new suit is a game force. 1 — 1 1NT — 2 or 3 = game force.Bids available for signing off in game. 3NT, 4, 4, 5, 5.If responder initially bids a new suit at the two level, the same rules apply EXCEPTthat a subsequent jump raise of opener’s first suit to the THREE LEVEL is gameforcing — responder should make a limit raise directly over the opening with 10–11points and at least three-card support: 1 — 2 2 — 2NT, 3, 3 = invitation to game (10–11 points). — 2 = preference, not forcing. Responder has 11–12 points and a doubleton spade. — 3 = game force, could be conventional. — 3 = game force.NOTE: Responder promises to bid again if he responded with a new suit at the twolevel unless opener’s rebid is at the game level. This applies when responder is anunpassed hand. 1 — 2 2 = forcing one round. Responder can limit his hand by bidding 2, 2NT, 3, or 3 at this point. He should not pass, since opener could have 18 points (just short of a jump shift rebid). 4

RESPONSES TO A 1 OR A 1 OPENINGA 1 opener suggests a four-card or longer suit, since 1 is preferred on handswhere a three-card minor suit must be opened. The exception is a hand with 4–4–3–2shape: four spades, four hearts, three diamonds, and two clubs, which is opened 1.Responses and later bidding generally follow the ideas set down in the previoussection. Bidding at the one level is up-the-line in principle. Responder needs moresupport to raise (four to raise 1; five to raise 1, though one fewer will do in apinch in a competitive sequence). Responses of 2NT and 3NT are standard: 1 — 2NT = 13–15, game forcing — 3NT = 16–18There is no forcing minor-suit raise. A 2 OPENING, RESPONSES, AND LATER BIDDINGA 2 opening shows at least 22+ points, or the playing equivalent. Responses: 2 — 2 = conventional, could be “waiting” with a good hand not suited to a positive response. — 2, 2, 3, 3 = natural and game forcing. At least a five-card suit and 8 points. — 2NT = a balanced 8 HCP.If opener rebids 2NT after a 2 response (showing 22–24 points), the sameresponses are used as over a 2NT opening: 2 — 2 2NT — 3 = Stayman. — 3, 3 = Jacoby transfers to hearts and spades, respectively. — 4 = Gerber. — 4NT = inviting a slam in notrump.If opener rebids a suit over a 2 response, the bidding is forcing to 3 of opener’smajor or 4 of opener’s minor. 2 — 2 2 — 2 3 = not forcing. SEQUENCE AFTER A WEAK TWO-BID OF 2, 2 OR 2A weak two-bid shows a six-card suit of reasonable quality and 5–11 HCP. On rareoccasions it may be a very good five-card suit. It is possible to open a weak two with apoor seven-card suit (not good enough to open with at the three level). Responses: A 2NT response is forcing, showing game interest. (This applies also if the opponents intervene with a double or a bid.) Opener rebids his suit with a minimum weak two (5–8 points). With a maximum hand opener bids another suit to show a “feature” (ace or king in that suit); lacking a feature, he raises to 3NT and lets responder place the contract. Any raise of opener’s suit is to play and could be preemptive (weak). A 3NT response is also to play.“RONF” on the card means “Raise Only Non-Force.” A new-suit response isforcing one round and shows at least a five-card suit. Opener should raise a majorsuit response with a three-card fit, or perhaps with a doubleton honor.With no fit for responder’s suit, opener rebids: With a minimum weak two-bid (5–8 points), rebid the suit at the lowest level. With a maximum weak two-bid, name a new suit or bid notrump. 5

OPENING PREEMPTSOpposite an unpassed partner, an opening 3 or 4-level call in a suit tends towardsound at equal or unfavorable vulnerability. Vulnerable against not, you should bewithin two tricks of your bid (i.e. with likely distribution of the remaining cards in yoursuit). When the vulnerability is equal, you should be within three tricks of your bid. Atfavorable vulnerability, the preempt tends to be lighter, so you should be within fourtricks of your bid. SLAM BIDDINGBlackwood 4NT is used to ask for aces. Responses show the number of aces bysteps. 5NT is then used to ask for kings; 5NT guarantees that the partnership holdsall four aces. — — — — — — — — 4NT — — 4NT 5x — 5NT 5 = 0 or 4 aces 6 ­ = 0 or 4 kings 5 = 1 ace 6 = 1 king 5 = 2 aces 6 = 2 kings 5 = 3 aces 6 = 3 kingsA jump to 5NT (and some 5NT bids when the auction is at the five level) is “GrandSlam Force,” asking partner to bid a grand slam with two of the three top honors inthe agreed suit; 5NT — 6 of the agreed suit = fewer than two top honors (A, K or Q). — 7 of the agreed suit = two of the three top honors. DEFENSIVE BIDDINGOvercalls show 8–16 points (double and bid the long suit with a stronger hand).The only forcing response is a cuebid of opener’s suit, asking the overcaller aboutthe quality of his overcall: (1) — 1 — (Pass) — 2 (Pass) — 2 = minimum overcall. — other = extra strength (11 or 12 points minimum).A 1NT overcall shows 15–18 points and a balanced hand (preferably a stopper inopener’s suit). No conventional responses are used by the responder to the 1NTovercall except 2, which is Stayman.A jump overcall of 2NT shows at least 5–5 in the lowest two unbid suits.Jump overcalls are preemptive, showing the same value as an opening bid at thesame level: (1) — 2 = a hand that would open a weak two-bid in spades. — 3 = a hand that would open 3.A cuebid overcall when the opponents have bid two suits is natural in either suit.A cuebid overcall when the opponents have bid only one suit is a Michaels cuebid,showing a 5–5 two-suiter (or more distributional). If the opening is in a minor suit,the cuebid shows the majors; if the opening is in a major, the cuebid shows theother major and an unspecified minor. (1) — 2 = at least 5–5 in the majors, 8 points or more. (1) — 2 = at least 5–5 in hearts and a minor; 10 points or more. 6

Responder may bid 2NT over a major suit cuebid to ask for partner’s minor. (1) — 2 — (Pass) — 2NT (asks for the minor). (Pass) — 3 = club suit. — 3 = diamond suit.A reopening bid means much the same as a direct seat bid, though it can be lighterat the minimum end. A reopening 1NT after an opponent has opened shows 10–15points. This is a wide range, but there will not usually be a game on for you.A double is for takeout over an opening partscore bid (4 or lower); penalty overopening game bids (4 or higher). A below-game jump response to a takeoutdouble is invitational. To force, responder cuebids opener’s suit.Versus an opening preempt, an overcall in a suit or notrump is natural; a cuebid isMichaels. COMPETITIVE BIDDINGThere is almost an endless variety of possible sequences, so it pays to havesimple guidelines to prevent bidding misunderstandings.Bids mean the same things they meant without the intervening bid. Still, it issometimes necessary to pick a bid that would normally have been a second choicewithout the overcall: 1 — (Pass) — 1 — (2) 2 with J 4 3 A 8 7 5 A Q J 4 J 3 (rebid 1NT if RHO has passed)Cuebidding right-hand opponent’s suit shows values for game without cleardirection for the moment. This is often used to show a game-forcing raise: 1 — (2) — 3 = game force; usually a raise.The negative double is used through 2, promising four cards (at least) in an unbidmajor. Bidding a major at the two level or higher shows 11 or more points and a five-card or longer suit. 1 — (1) — Double = 4–4 or better in the majors. 1 — (1) — Double = exactly four spades (1 promises five). 1 — (1) — Double = four hearts and 6+ points or five hearts and 5–10 points.If RHO makes a takeout double: 1 — (Double) — 1, 1 = forcing, point count not limited. — 2 = non-forcing (6–10 points, usually a six-card suit). — 2NT = limit raise (at least 10 points) or better. — Redouble = 10 points or more, but it is better to make a more descriptive bid of 1, 1, or 2NT with the appropriate hand. — 3 = preemptive, good trump support but fewer than 10 points.A responder’s jump shift after a double is to play: 1 — (Double) — 2, 2, 3 = six-plus card suit, like a weak two-bid or preemptive three-bid.A redouble can have one of three meanings:To play if:Your side is at the four level or higher: 4 — (Double) — Redouble = Penalty; 7

The opponents double a conventional bid: 1NT — (Pass) — 2 — (Double)Redouble = Penalty, good diamond suit;A good hand if their double is for takeout: 1 — (Double) — Redouble = 10+ points;SOS, requesting a different suit, if your side is doubled for penalty in a trump suitat the three level or lower: 1 — (Pass) — Pass — (Double) Pass — (Pass) — Redouble = SOS, responder can support at least two of the unbid suits.Unless otherwise noted elsewhere, any bid or double by an opponent cancelsa convention intended for non-competitive sequences. Examples: 1 — 2 — 2NT = natural (12–14 HCP). 2 — Double — 2 = natural and positive.If the opponents use a convention (such as Michaels or the unusual notrump), youcan double to show at least 10 points, or you can cuebid one of their shown suitsto force to game. 1 — (2) — 3 = game force. — Double = at least 10 points, probably balanced. DEFENSIVE LEADS AND SIGNALSDefensive signals when following suit or discarding are “high encourages, lowdiscourages.” And “High-low is an even number, low-high is odd when count isgiven.”Leads are fourth best. From three low cards against a suit contract lead low; againsta notrump contract lead high. From four cards or longer lead fourth best. The onesystemic exception is leading from a suit of four or more cards without an honor. Inthis instance lead the second highest card.Leads are top of touching honors and top from an interior sequence. Against suits,the ace is led from A K x.NOTE: When playing the ACBL SAYC:You may add defenses to the opponents’ conventions (e.g., unusual vs. unusual, andMathe over big club). Put these convention-defenses in the section “Defenses vs.Opp’s Conventions” on the left-hand side of the convention card.#170358 SP3 (bk) Printed in USA Rev. 1/06
