dokoko Posted July 19, 2020 Report Share Posted July 19, 2020 After 1M(3x) some theorists suggested to exchange the bids 4♣ and 4x (e.g. "ETM Gold Premium" on bridgematters.com by Glen Ashton). So 4♣ shows a good raise (slammish) while the more space consuming cuebid shows a club length. Since many club hands would use a thrump double instead of showing the length this seems helpful. We extended this treatment to our 1♦ opening which shows an unbalanced hand (usually 5+). Using this replacement cuebid, we can find out about a spade control later.
