iandayre Posted January 7, 2017 Report Share Posted January 7, 2017 Best solution IMO would be eliminate SJS to the 3 level. Not enough room to make them very useful. A good and uncomplicated substitute playing 2/1 would be 6 card suit, game invitational. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted January 8, 2017 Report Share Posted January 8, 2017 He shouldn't SJS with 3 card support for opener's major to begin with. That is the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree at the 3 level. At the two level, they are an excellent tool and should be retained. GIB actually handles them fairly well, given its inability to evaluate properly opposite a splinter. If you bid 2S over 1D with AQJTx, KJx, AQxx, x, then follow with 3(or 4 if necessary) Clubs, GIB won't promote 3 small nor de-evaluate KJx in that suit.
