Inverted Minors (a must with weak no trumps):

Standard: The raise from 1 to 2 of a minor shows 4+ support and 6-9 hcp.
	The raise from 1 to 3 is "usually" used as a limit raise showing
	5+ support and 10-12 hcp.  (Stronger raises are made by bidding
	another suit and then jumping later-- even bidding a 3 card suit
	if strong enough.)  

Inverted minors ideas: The auction  1C-p-2C-all pass  is rare.  Most 
	people will balance the 2C with a takeout double or a suit bid.  
	Also the double raise of a minor has always been troublesome.  If
	the 1-3 is limit then if partner continues bidding the partnership
	may get too high, even at the four level.  Say: 1C-p-3C-p; 3D-p-4C
	and now you can no longer play at 3NT.  

Inverted minors (denies a 4 card major): 
	1-3 raise: The 1 to 3 raise is used to show a weak hand with a bad 
		9 or less with 5+ card support.  Opener only goes on with 
		a strong hand (17+).  

	1-2 raise: The 1 to 2 raise is unlimited in hcp.  Responder has 4+
		support in the suit--- the final contract may be in the 
		minor or in NT.  The bottom of the 2 raise is generally 
		9 hcp, but could be a good 7 or 8 (good = 6+ support). 
		Opener must rebid (unless partner is a passed hand) 
		descriptively: 
			3minor: weak hand with the minor  
			2NT: balanced--- 15-17 if you're playing weak NT or
				11-15 if you're not
			3NT: balanced 18-20
			new suit: non-minimum hand with a control in the suit
				(this and partner's rebid should probably be 
				a controlled suit and not necessarily a first
				round control) 
			4minor: strong hand with the minor---
				it's probably better to play this as something
				else such as _blackwood_ 
		After opener makes their rebid, responder must also rebid
		descriptively: 
			pass: only the 3minor rebid or the 11-15 balanced hand
			3minor: minimum hand
			2NT: showing a balanced hand 
			new suit: a control 
			4minor: strong unbalanced hand ---
				probably better to play as _blackwood_ 

		*NOTE: if either partner has made a non-minimum rebid, the 
			auction is GAME-FORCING (at least to 3NT) 
			
	1-4/5 raise: these are preemptive, if you had a strong hand you should 
		bid 2 of the minor 

IN COMPETITION: 

	less than 2 of the minor competition: 
	if you can make 2 of the minor raise then inverted minors are still on.

		1C-1H-2C 	this shows a strong hand 

		1C-1NT-3C   	showing a weak hand with clubs 

		1D-2C-5D	preemptive 

	more than 2 of the minor competition:
		the cue bid of their suit is strong 
		the 3 of the minor bid is about a limit raise
		jumps in the minor are preemptive

		1D-2S-3D	about a limit raise with 5+ diamonds

		1C-2D-4C	preemptive
	
		1D-2H-3H	strong hand  

	more than 3 of the minor competition:
		cue bid: very strong
		4 of the minor: enough strength for the level
		jumps in the minor: preemptive or to make
		double: penalty or negative depending agreement

		1C-3H-4C	enough strength for the 4 level
		
		1C-3S-4S	damn strong, probably slam-searching

		1D-4H-5D	enough strength for the 5 level

		1D-4C-5D	preemptive or to make 

		1D-3H-dbl 	penalty or negative
