Takeout Doubles is the third way of overcalling, behind the normal suit overcall and the 1NT overcall.

- overcall when you have opening points but no good 5 card suit to bid
- show hands which are too strong to overcall with a suit or 1NT
- become more flexible with your overcalls
Who is the course for?
This course is for all players who wish to have more flexibility in the bidding when your side is the overcalling side.
This online course should be taken in conjunction with Overcalls

I have three suits. Can I still overcall?
Partner “overcalls” with a takeout double. How do I reply?
I’ve overcalled with a takeout double and partner, The Advancer, has responded.
Should I bid game, invite game, or just pass and stay where we are?
I am the Advancer and my partner, who overcalled with a takeout double, is now inviting me to bid game.
