Partner has opened with 2 spades. "Mmmmm," you think. "A weak bid. Really weak ... or maybe 9 or 10 points? How can I find out?" One way to find out is play Ogust.
After partner has opened a Weak Two, if you respond with 2NT, you are asking partner to show the weakness or the strength of his hand and suit by using one of the following bids:
3C - weak hand, weak suit
3D - weak hand, good suit
3H - good hand, weak suit
3S - good hand, good suit
If you can memorize these responses, Ogust is a great communication for Weak Two bidders!
