MultiLandy / Cappelletti

The MultiLandy or Cappelletti Convention

This convention can help you defend against a NT opening. It shows precisely the content of the overcaller's hand. It should not  be used with fewer points than required for a general Overcall. 


With Multilandy - 

2C = 5 cards in in one major and 4 in the other

2D = at least 5 cards in a major suit 

2H = 5 hearts and 5 in a minor

2S = 5 spades and 5 in a minor 

2NT = 5 cards in both minors 


Response to 2C overcall

If no preference bid 2D to allow partner to choose


Response to 2D overcall

Bid 2NT if you have support in H or S and Opening Points


Response to 2H overcall
