Can anyone provide me with a detailed description of the Orient Bidding System? I would like to read more about it but can only find general information on "The Bridgeguys" site. Thanks for any assistance.

Good luck

The Original geocities site is no longer on the web.

This is not a good system as every 1-level bid is artificial and shows only hcp, distribution is King!
Ultra ♣ Relay: see Daniel's web page: https://bridgewithda...19/07/Ultra.pdf
C3: Copious Canape Club is still my favorite system. (Ultra upgraded, PM for notes)

Santa Fe Precision ♣ published 8/19. TOP3 published 11/20. Magic experiment (Science Modernized) with Lenzo. 2020: Jan Eric Larsson's Cottontail ♣. 2020. BFUN (Bridge For the UNbalanced) 2021: Weiss Simplified ♣ (Canape & Relay). 2022: Canary ♣ Modernized, 2023-4: KOK Canape.

Yes every1-level bid is artificial. "it shows only HCP" is wrong" Total working point shown in opening bid
is Point+Distribution so say if opener bid 1!S...say Working point + distribution total is 18-19 points.
it does not say that suite is Spade... Suite is revealed later.

Personally,I would avoid playing this system altogether Stick to what's been tried
and trusted.

I think that we have all, in our teens and early twenties, mentally invented and maybe even tried this system. I think that it would be a lot of fun, so long as you didn't care about results.

This would probably be the standard system if that guy who is proposing all kinds of changes got his way with respect to eliminating the ranks of suits, as there would be lots of room to start relays.
