Teams, both vulnerable. Playing standard methods your partner opens 1C and RHO overcalls 1D. Your call?
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

If standard methods include 2♦ as limit or better, 2♦

If standard methods play 2♦ as limit raise or better in clubs, I do that. If standard methods don't play 2♦ as limit raise or better in clubs, I switch mid-auction to a system that does.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Fine with 2♦. If 3♥ is a splinter, thats also fine.

I don't agree, with a small doubleton in an unbid suit and a hand not worth a game force anyway.

Show stop now or next? I like 2D to see if partner has real clubs and up-going. Or 4-4M on a convenient 1C opener.
