The
weak two bid is a common used in the game of
contract bridge, where an opening bid of two diamonds, hearts or spades signifies a weak hand with a long suit. It is used in combination with the
strong two clubs bid and is a form of
preemptive bid. The term refers to an opening bid, and is not to be confused with the "weak jump
overcall", which denotes a similar type of hand, but is bid over an opponent's opening bid.
