Things are a little different from the situation when partner has opened 1NT. If the opening bid was a weak major, then we do not use the cue bid as Stayman (partner is assumed to have the other major). Instead, it denies the other major and requests doubler to bid 3NT with stop(s). Remember, partner has not bid NT and you do not want to be declarer in NT with no stop. |
