... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

I'm pretty sure that Schollaardt-Wortel would bid 2S with opener's hand in a 2/1 GF context. I don't know about the pairs that play for the Dutch team.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

I am asking him right now, and he says 3♥ should be a better hand, not a balanced ultra minimum. I didn't know this yet.
I don't think any of us know this.
Pszkola and Kwiecken, (spelling?), played that 3H showed 4 card support not 3. They would certainly rebid 2S with this hand in their system, Strefa. They were not a bad pair, just one of the best in the world....
So "a particular good pair playing a different system only raises with 4 card support" is a counter-example to "I don't think any of us knew opener needs more than a bare minimum to raise"? Interesting.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Well, you learned something again Josh. Stay on these forums for a while and wh knows what will happen to you.
