Had a hand similar to this on Monday...

2D multi is bid from my right, I hold off and pass a 16 HCP strong distribution hand. 2D reply comes and my partner doubles...

I hold AQJT9x of H and jump to 4H which shows my partner slam interest...I also held the KQx of S. I assumed the suit was spades for them. We missed out on a textbook 7S and played 6NT-1.

Rethinking my bidding...I may simply jump to 3H and see what partner has to say...but I was shocked to see the multi bidder having such poor H honors.

Well, since 32519 has posted the entire hand, how many of the passers are balancing with the West hand? What about the same hand without the Q?

I think there are some similarities with LHO opening 2 and it being passed round to us, where I wouldn't like to sell out to 2 w/w, so I'd reopen. Replace Q with a smaller and I'd pass. If West does pass, we get a (very) bad result due to a misguess from East which the massively vast majority of the time would have been correct. Shrug, sometimes that happens.

Edit sorry i'm tired, removed rubbish post!

I wouldn't balance with west's hand which is why East has to act now. If no leaping michaels I'd have to bid 3 and hope to get in later.

Oh. I agreed with your deleted post :unsure:. But leaping Michaels seems to be the answer to this hand :)

If you bid 3 how will you feel when that gets passed out - which I imagine would happen a lot more often than it being passed out if you pass?

My preferred method is that one of 4 and 3 followed by pulling 3/N to 4 is /, the other is /.
