+100 when game is cold... I HATE it when that happens. (Unless I am going down in which case

I have often wondered about learning 4 card majors... then I come to my senses.

I actually threatened to learn Culbertson.. I have 3 of his books (red, blue, & gold), but bidding has come so far, it is useless to bother.

Do you have any budding converts to 5-Card majors?

Not many, just 1 pair. Traditions die slowly. One reason is that you MUST alert 1c and 1 d openings if they promised just 3 cards (EBU regulations). Most people reasonably think less alerts is better. Another factor is popularity of rubber bridge. Yes, I'm not kidding. There are as many rubber tables per week as duplicate in Manchester bridge club. And in rubber all play exactly same system - Acol.

I wish we had more rubber bridge games around here. It is the most effective way to charge (or be charged) for lessons
