I must admit I don't like making a TOX on a weak opening hand holding only two of the three unbid suits because there is a good chance partner will bid my doubleton, but I can see the argument for doing so at MPs when holding both majors. If someone can show me the odds of finding a major fit and getting a good score is greater than the odds of playing in a hideous non-fit at the two or three level for a bad score then I will change my mind.


If BBO finally decides to restore the trick taking ability of Dealer script I will be happy to oblige... but modern takeout is about unbid majors, minors take their chances.
