Well, I was lucky with the 1♠. 4♥ now. Pard won't go overboard because he can't be very strong.

Had I opened 1S I have to bid 4H now. We could have a huge heart fit.

Gotta bid 4♥ now, but I strongly object against 1♠. Partner will now play us for a stronger hand but we have no choice.

If I opened this hand 1S I was prepared to bid hearts at any level; I have to bid 4H now.

If I had opened 1S (which I would not),
I decided to bid hearts the next time,
nothing in the auction so far has happened
to change my decison.

With kind regards

I would have passed absent an agreement to open this type of hand. But if this is an opening for our partnership, 4♥ is a no brainer--it must be this type of hand. Can you construct a more HCP-oriented opener that has four level safety but can't whack 3NT? Yes, but how likely is it?

No. It's this: With Loser Count Five, Take the Dive

I bid 4H as I opened this piece of cheese.

4H, no choice

Partners hate it when I pass with these hand types.

4H now. Had I passed initially, I would bid 4C now to show both Majors with better H, (minimally better that is).
