whether TO jump a major suit bid

have enough playing tricks for
the purpose. or merely TO give a

advantage Of allowing lceway for
a mild slam invitation by means
Of eve bid Of side suit. with

Usually the deciding factor is
whether the response to the OPEN

strength. when three may be the
best bid. or on great distribution
without many high cards. when
the long jump has the advantage
OF shutting out opponents who
