david_c Posted September 20, 2005 Report Share Posted September 20, 2005 (edited) I've made a start on the book version. [rest of post deleted: there is a newer version below.] Edited September 23, 2005 by david_c Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david_c Posted September 23, 2005 Report Share Posted September 23, 2005 (edited) Here is a more complete FD version of Keri (the book version). I'm not intending to add many other sequences to this, so if anyone else wants to do more work on it, you can go ahead without worrying that I'm doing the same thing. But I'll edit this post if I spot any mistakes in it. I've tried to include most of the sequences which are explicitly discussed in the book, but there are a lot of responses to slam tries which are left out. This is mainly because I can't see why anyone would want to play them in the way suggested. Klinger gives about six different sequences where 4♣ is a natural slam try, and they all have different (artificial) responses! I think this is a bit much. See p95 of the book for example, which really made me laugh. I'm sure it's great if it comes up, except that you'd never remember it. I'm afraid I can't be bothered with the "♣ ♦ ♥ ♠ NT Def" thing.
