Brown sticker is a category of contract bridge conventional agreements defined by the World Bridge Federation (WBF).〔The official definition can be found at the WBF website in (Systems Policy, page 3. )〕 Brown sticker conventions are considered to be difficult to defend against, and thus are only permitted at the highest levels of tournament play. Only highly unusual methods (HUMs) have a higher classification. A convention qualifies for a brown sticker if it fulfills any of the following criteria: # An opening bid of 2 through 3 may be weak and does not promise a known suit. # An overcall of a natural opening at the one level does not promise four cards in a known suit. # A weak two-suited bid where one of the suits by definition may be only three cards or shorter. # It is used for protection of psychic bids, or systemically required psyches. Notable exceptions are the Multi 2 diamonds (due to its popularity), a natural 1NT overcall, and cue bids on strong hands to force partner. In general, if a bid is weak (or potentially weak having multiple options) and does not promise four cards in a defined suit (when weak), then it is likely to qualify as a brown sticker convention. ==References== 〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「brown sticker」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
