Flannery - Anti-Flannery

Anti-Flannery

"Anti-Flannery" is a variation used in systems which use canapé approach, where shorter suit is opened first. It is used in some variations of Blue Club and Lancia systems. With canapé in effect, hands with 4=5 in majors are naturally opened 1♠ with 2♥ rebid, however, hands with 5 spades and 4 hearts are the ones that present a problem. So, the bid of 2 shows 5 spades and 4 hearts. The further development is similar to the basic Flannery.
