Another interesting hand from tonight - The first one with the final partner, still playing a strong club. You have:



Your opening bid options are:

1♣ - 16+ (Relays if uncontested, otherwise similar to Meck Lite)
1♥ - Natural and Limited, 5+♥
2♣ - Limited, 6+♣
Something else creative.

What is your choice, and what do you do after

I open 1♣.

I bid 4nt for 2 places to play and raise ♣ or ♥ to the 6 level and correct 5♦ to 5♥.

Ick

I guess I open 1C, hating it. Over 4S X P I guess I try 4NT. If partner bids 5D I try 5H, if 5C I raise to 6.

This. I don't think I can describe this hand no matter what after I open 1♥ or 2♣, and while 1♣ isn't much better it will at least give partner room for optimism after I show a 2 suiter.
I once yelled at my partner for discarding the 'wrong' card when he was subjected to a squeeze that I allowed by giving the wrong count with too high a card. Now he's allowed to pitch aces when the opponents have the king in the dummy. At trick 2. When he could have followed suit. And blame me.
