Cthulhu D Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 It might be good to clarify what you mean by the Bergen Bridge philosophy. Marty is famous for two things: A) A range of conventions and Law of Total Tricks approach that emphasises showing the extent of your fit immediately, and taking a slower approach with non fit hands B) Very, very, very aggressive pre-emptive style. For reference : http://www.bridgeworld.com/default.asp?d=article_sampler&f=samppsx.html For example, green against red, Marty dealt and opened a weak 2S (systematically opened as a transfer pre-empt with 2D) with the following: S: J 9 x x x H: 8 x x x x D: Q x C: x This is a pretty extreme style, so it may be worth clarifying if you mean A, B or both.
