They are natural and strong -- in the 17-21 range -- a 1-round force. Possible Reverses by Opener are... • 1!H - 1N - 2!S • 1!D - 1!S - 2!H • 1!D - 1N - 2!H/2!S • 1!C - 1!H - 2!D • 1!C - 1!S - 2!D/2!H • 1!C - 1N - 2!D/2!H/1!S Reverses are NOT a convention. If you don't have the extra strength, don't reverse.
