I play Meckwell Lite and am always trying to pick up some pointers by watching the system in action on VuGraph, so the recent USBC trials were great viewing for me. On board 118 of the finals, the Greco-Hampson auction started 1C-1S-2C-2S. Opener's 2C was alerted as showing hearts (his shape was 0=6=2=5) and responder's 2S was alerted as showing 0/1 heart (his shape was 6=0=3=4). The 2C rebid, showing hearts, is the way Meckstroth and Rodwell show suits in strong club auctions and is a familiar technique. I have two questions:

1) Does anyone know how Greco and Hampson define responder's other bids on this auction?

2) Do they use the Meckstroth-Rodwell suit showing technique in other auctions?

Thanks for any info you can provide ... Luke
