Yes, and yes. It's a follow-on to his earlier Millennium Club (2005, iirc).

Well, it depends. I played our version of the Millennium Club (weak NT) for about 8 years and was reasonably satisfied with it (except we eliminated the 2 rebid asking for controls and substituted 2).

Have been playing the revised version for about 4 months with a strong NT (increases the number of 1 openings since 11-14 is somewhat frequent). The system continues to use the 2 rebid as a control ask (after opening 1) and any 1-level response. This is a nice convention (was also part of Millennium Club).

There are some non-logical follow-ons and 1NT response to any 1-bid is a GF Relay. This makes bidding after opening 1M (5cds) somewhat problematic.

However, the relay system is simple (with transfers also) and works reasonably well.

C3: Copious Canape Club is still my favorite system. (Ultra upgraded, PM for notes)
