Scoring: MP


After P opens 1S and LHO overcalls 2H what is your bid.

If it makes any difference playing a simple 2/1 system.

Hi,

Pass, although 2S is an alternative,
the heart shortage and the AQ in Diamond
should be compensation for the missing
3rd trump.

With kind regards

Did partner accept the bid out of turn?

If RHO overcalled 2♥, seems like a clear pass.

I also pass this random 8 count. My Q of ♥ is ob dubious value. I do like my ♦ as they often trap RHO's honor or fit PD, but my 6 card ♣ is headed by the T.

I see no reason to bid .. neilkaz ..

Pass - WTP

Why is 3♣ even considered an option?
You must know the rules well - so that you may break them wisely!

While I also pass, a neg double is an option. If PD rebids ♠ that is OK, and if PD bids 3♦ one can hope AQT is adequate support. But 43 fits aren't so fun at the 3 level or higher if PD competes which is why I prefer to pass.
