This is one of the best articles (if not the best) I read in recent years as I wrote there too.

It is written by someone who used to post here a lot. Our own Han Peters. (I hope he does not mind us calling him "our own")

If you missed it, I strongly suggest everyone to go and read it.

Two conclusions:

 

1) (Low Informaton) Puppet Stayman actually leaks more information than Regular Stayman.

2) Blasting 3N is often better than using Forcing Stayman (instead of Puppet Stayman) in search of a 5-3 M fit.

 

It would be interesting to know if the ability to find 5-3 M fits via Puppet Stayman (instead of Forcing Stayman) weighs up for the informaton leakage in 1).
