I though that staying quite on a missfit hand could be best, but I realised I had to bid 2 before when I saw what got me next:

Scoring: IMP

E - S - W - N
.-.-.-.-.-.-.ps
1-ps-ps-2
ps-??


You cannot undo this time, what now?

EDIT: sorry, partner was a passed hand.

I agree with pass the first time,
if it gets passed out, I will write
plus, better than going minus.
3NT now, may or may not make.

With kind regards

Your initial pass is ok. I would consider 2 or 3N.

Now 3N. Maybe 2 just to see is p can bid 3. Yes, 3N is an underbid but I don't have a way to show this hand anyway.
The world would be such a happy place, if only everyone played Acol :) --- TramTicket

Don't see what else you can do beside 3NT.

Is your LHO capable of a psyche? I have seen hands like this one written up. LHO has 2 small spades and AKJTxxxx of clubs.

Would make for a great story.
