Seems like a textbook pass. Pard is short in hearts, so if he has something, he'll balance with dbl and no game is missed.

Hi,

Pass, but if you are desparate bid 3NT.
But dont be surpriesed if they kill you,
3H red. vs. green promises certain values,
and if East has a 3H bid and if West knows the
real purpose of the red card, things could
get nasty.

As Bergen said, desperate times require
desparate measures, but most of the time things
wont imporve.

With kind regards
Marlowe

I care about the friends I have made on BBO. Also, I am extremely concerned about the environment/ ecology/ wildlife/ the little planet that we call Earth. How much more of the world's habitat and food supply for animals do we plan on destroying. How many more wetlands are we going to drain, fill, and build on? How many more sand dunes are we going to knock down in the interests of high-rise hotels or luxury homes?
