Drury

Drury is a convention which allows a passed hand to show a strong raise of a major suit at the two level. This convention uses a bid of 2 Clubs by a passed hand to show a limit raise. Originally, opener would rebid 2 of the major with a "real" opener--that is, a hand which would have opened even in first or second seat--and 2 Diamonds with a weaker hand. However, today most players using this convention play Reverse Drury, in which the rebid of the major is the weakest bid. Another variation is Two-Way Drury in which a response of 2 Diamonds shows 4-card support and 2 Clubs shows 3-card support.
