Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Three card limit+ raise over 1M - (X)
- The points you make support the exact opposite conclusion. "with a constructive 3-card raise, 8-10, you have already bid out your hand with 2♦, so why should you bid again over further competition?" It can, of course, be correct to compete at the three-level after making a simple raise ...

- The World's most complete bridge player.
- Yeah I feel a little bad about it, but I couldn't hold it in any longer.
- 1NT-4!s: What is “expert standard” (if anything)?
- Justin Lall's website (https://justinlall.wordpress.com/) has a good writeup of puppet stuff (and other stuff). It doesn't cover some of the specifics he is talking about here (the (32)44 stuff is new to me), but it's a good foundation, e.g. 1NT - 3♣ ...
