- Effective Training Suggestions?
- I'm also very interested in this and I've been watching for responses. Since there's none so far I will keep this alive by pointing you to this prior thread: http://bridgewinners.com/article/view/a-few-questions-about-partnership-concentration-and-counting/ It's not exactly on topic, but close.

- 2/1 structure question (major suit agreement at 2-level)
- Yes. Fred commented informally on BBO forums, which is captured in this old BW post: http://bridgewinners.com/article/view/fred-gitelman-advice-5-21-sequences/ There have been other posts on BW, like this series of posts: http://bridgewinners.com/article/view/openers-rebid-after-1s-2m-2h-2s-part-4/

- ACBL Bulletin Description of Standard After Opener's Jump Shift

- Pulling of responder 1NT: part 1
- This came up on BBO forums some years back: http://www.bridgebase.com/forums/topic/11605-is-there-a-consensus-ii/ In brief ... Phil Clayton: "I think the modern treatment is to raise directly with a moderate 4=3=5=1 and make the delayed raise with roughly a King better than a minny." Fred ...
