Bergen and Jacoby
How important are there conventions?
In the original form? If not what modifications do the members suggest.

colormag domain was triggered too early. This is usually an indicator for some code in the plugin or theme running too early. Translations should be loaded at the init action or later.

4 card raises are important (Mike Lawrence wrote a 3 series article on this). Bergan raises(along with Jacoby 2NT) are simple (and well documented) and played by lot of people. As long as you cover different versions of 4 card raise (Mixed raise, preemptive raise, Limit raise and forcing raise and 4 card drury raise- all of these with 4 card trump) in your system after partner opens 1 Major, you are covered.
I play reverse Bergan (3C as LR, 3D as Mixed Raise). Play few modifications after Jacoby 2NT response. Never had a hand that was not covered by this till now. I avoid giving Bergan raises with 4333 shape, but that is more on hand evaluation/Judgement.
Thanks
