I pass, I can always come in later with a fit showing non-jump.

Of course that may be a non-fit showing jump :blink:

It turns out that this is a part-score hand, so passing or opening 1♠ will get you a small plus by defending the opponent's contract.

The big winners are the pre-emptors. They will play in 2♠ or 3♠ doubled and make 9 tricks, as LHO has a normal takeout double and RHO has 4333 distribution with ♠AKQx.

Flat in +870 was a common result.
