At the table I doubled, planning to bid diamonds over clubs. Only Noble seemed to suggest that this sequence should maybe show an extra heart, as opposed to extra strength. I think partner would probably have taken it as showing a better hand, and I kind of doubt that I have that. I'm not convinced that dbl-3d showing 6-4 is good, either - it seems to suffer more or less the same problems as ELC in other sequences.

We didn't play g/b 2N in this auction, sorry if that wasn't clear.

The rest of the auction was easy. 3s from lefty, 4N(minors) from partner, 5s from righty, double by me, float. We got it 2 (I thought I screwed up by not leading or switching to a trump, but I guess it turns out I can get endplayed in hearts for -2 anyway.) 5d seems to be -1 on a spade lead.

maybe i am putting too much emphasis on communicating my shape...I suppose it is very unlikely that hearts would be better

in limited systems this is way easier..dbl then 3♦ describes your strength and shape
