If you want to open one no trump more often, I recommend watching rabidbean's series on the ebridge cup on YouTube. Of course he is playing with robots in a best hand event for the qualifying round and semifinal and the key phrase is, "this looks like a no trump".

For the final it was not best hand so proved to be a less successful tactic.

Joking aside, you will still learn a lot from watching the series. The playlist is available at https://www.youtube....KX0bK2oxm37J6Cs

I don't work for BBO and any advice is based on my BBO experience over the decades
