                  OPN shows shortness by 3C/3D/3S, 5-card suit by 4C/4D(/4S),
                  maximum balanced by 3H, medium balanced by 3NT,
                  and minimmum balanced by 4H
          3C    = Bergen Raise ; 7-9, 4 Sup, no shortness
          3D    = Limit Raise ; 10-12, 4 Sup
                  occasionally 11-13, 4 Sup, poor control
                    e.g. S:QJx  H:Kxxx  D:KJ10  C:Qxx
                         S:Kxx  H:QJxxx  D:xx  C:KQx
                  RSP will raise to 4H with those hand if OPN rebids 3H.
