"Lebensohl" (RealBridge and Zoom)

• The main use of this convention is when partner has opened 1NT, with the opponents overcalling
• Take the two hands below: 
  • Do you want to compete?
  • Do you want partner to continue the auction?

Answer:  you cannot use a bid of 3 Diamonds to show both hands:  one bid cannot mean two entirely different things.  This is the problem Lebensohl addresses, by giving you two ways of arriving at 3 Diamonds.
