In contract bridge, Bergen raises are conventional treatments of responses to a major suit opening in a five-card major system.
Bergen (Convention) : Convention très jouée aux Etats-Unis (et aussi au Portugal), développée par Marty Bergen (1948-) et publiée en 1982. Il s’agit, dans le système « majeure cinquième », de graduer les réponses sur une ouverture majeure, en accord avec la Loi des levées* totales.
The Reverse Bergen Raise is almost universally used today. Now after 3♣*, 3♦ becomes the help-suit bid. One bids the major at the three-level with less than 12 points and game with 12+ points.

BERGEN RAISES. This convention was first invented by my good friend, Marty Bergen, when we were bridge partners in the 1980's. As first written and played, here were the responses to a 1-of-a-Major opening: 3 =6-10 in support and 4-card support. 3 =11-12 in support (limit raise) and 4-card support. 3-of-the-major (raise)=0-5 and 4-card support.
