The question is not how to reach spades but how to play 3C doubled when no one doubles. <_<

Simply that when 3 suits have been bid, a double shows 4 of the unbid suit, bidding it shows 5.

It's more useful in circumstances like 1♦-(1♥)-1♠-(2♥) X shows 4♣, 3♣ shows 5, so partner with 3 clubs knows for certain whether you have a fit, but we keep it for all such auctions for simplicity.


Thanks, makes sense to me - I'll bounce it off partners when I get a chance.
