Starting the auction.
==============================================================
Entering Bid Driver for East
Check if opening bid already made.
Opening bid not made. See if this player can open bidding.
Entering the slam opening bid qualification routine.
A slam opening bid requires at least 33 points.
The hand does not have enough points to open with a slam bid.
Entering the strong opening bid qualification routine.
The strong opening bids are 2NT, 3NT, or 2C. All require 20-32 points. Check point range first.
The hand does not have enough points for a strong opening bid.
Entering the one level opening bid qualification routine.
This involves opening 1 major, 1NT, or 1 minor based on points and hand shape.
All 12-21 points hands can open at least at the 1 level.
We also will open at the 1 level with 11 points if we have a six-card suit or two good five-card suits (with some exceptions).
Check for possible opening of 1 of a major suit.
Requires at least 5 of a major suit, which precludes a NT opening.
Not enough spades or hearts to open 1 of a major.
Check for possible opening of 1NT. Requires a balanced hand with 15-17 points.
Hand is not suitable for 1NT opening.
Our points require an opening bid. We don't have 5 of a major, so we must have 3 in at least one minor suit.
Decide which minor suit to open.
Check for 3/3 split in diamonds and clubs.
We have more diamonds than clubs, or more than 3 of each. Will bid 1D, but will do more analysis to note possible 3/2 diamond/club split.
Now we know we have at least 4 diamonds. Bid 1D.
==============================================================
Entering Bid Driver for South
Check if opening bid already made.
Overcalls not implemented yet. Pass.
==============================================================
Entering Bid Driver for West
Check if opening bid already made.
Entering the response to 1D opening bid qualification routine.
First priority is to find a fit in a major suit.
Check for possible 1H response with 6+ points, 4 hearts, and hearts length same as or greater than spades length.
Check for possible 1H response with 6+ points, 5+ hearts, and hearts longer than spades.
Check for possible 1S response with 6+ points, 4+ spades.
We don't have to compare spade and hearts length because the checks for 1H response already did that. We know spades are longer now.
The next priority is getting to no trump if hand is suitable and if no fit in a minor suit.
Check for possible 3NT response with balanced, 13-15 points, less than 5 diamonds, no 4-card major, stoppers in unbid suits.
Check for possible 2NT response with balanced, 11-12 points (or 10-12 with a rich 10-pointer), less than 5 diamonds, no 4-card major, stoppers in unbid suits.
Check for possible 1NT response with balanced, 6-9 points (or 6-10 with a poor 10-pointer), less than 5 diamonds, no 4-card major.
The last priority is supporting partner's minor opener, or bidding the other minor.
Check for possible 3D limit raise with 10-12 points, 5+ diamonds, no 4-card major.
I have 10-12 points, 5+ diamonds, no 4-card major. Limit-raise to 3D.
