Is there anything in print on this Canape' approach to Jacoby?

WinstonM,

You should check out http://www.bridgematters.com/onent.htm, they have done all the hard work for you already. They extend both Jacoby Transfer and Stayman. Work your way through the three variations of how they respond to 1NT. It is worth the read.

On this one, you have several options, including bidding 2C and then, if partner doesn't bid 2S (any other bid), rebid 2S as a "range ask" to find out if he is minimum or maximum. Or bid 2C and then over any response by partner bid 3C which is a transfer to diamonds... you will obviously keep bidding. Or you can bid 2H (transfer to 2S), then rebid 3C (transfer to 3D, GF).

Yes, Ben, it is really good to see you back and I hope all is well now. Thanks for the website. This system work is brutal and not much fun, to boot. :)
