Does anybody play canape these days ?

Yes, I been playing canape for a long time in Precision 1C - 1D - 1M auctions for more than 18 years (2007). Posted Image
It is a cheap way of showing 4-cd majors in a hand that might also have a longer minor!

Eventually we switched to 4-cd majors to achieve similar efficiency in 1 of a major auctions.

Been playing 4-cd majors and canape for almost as long.

Read M.I.C.S book, but did not like the 1♦ opening bid or 2♣ opening bid.

I don't play 2/1 GF when opening other than 1♣.
Ultra ♣ Relay: see Daniel's web page: https://bridgewithda...19/07/Ultra.pdf
C3: Copious Canape Club is still my favorite system. (Ultra upgraded, PM for notes)

Santa Fe Precision ♣ published 8/19. TOP3 published 11/20. Magic experiment (Science Modernized) with Lenzo. 2020: Jan Eric Larsson's Cottontail ♣. 2020. BFUN (Bridge For the UNbalanced) 2021: Weiss Simplified ♣ (Canape & Relay). 2022: Canary ♣ Modernized, 2023-4: KOK Canape, 2025-6: Canape!
