Bridge - Jordan 2NT

[Peter]

All of my bridge partners,

I was going thru Points Schmoints again and came across a convention that may be useful:  Jordan 2NT.
It is used after your partner opens and the opponents double.  The definition is that it shows 10 or more distributional points with 4 card support.  It would be used in place of a redouble.  Some web sites have it as a limit raise only.  Others say it's 10 or more (including Marty).  My first impression is that I like it as a limit raise only. 

Normally I don't like to clog my brain up with too many conventions (I like the simplicity of redouble is 10+ points for everything), but I'm starting to enjoy fit defining bids (e.g. Bergen raises).

The bid is artificial and thereby alertable.

If anybody would be interested in trying this out, let me know and we'll give it a go.

I'm game for it.  Easy enough to remember.

I'll suggest another convention I'd like to see in a separate email.
