In general I can never pass when a double game swing is so possible.

I agree you have to bid 4S.

The tougher question is switching hearts and spades, what would you do over 4S?

I think I'd usually bid 5H, but there are days when I'd chicken out.

I might have overcalled 2♥ initially. I admit I'd prefer a slightly stronger hand. But I'd stretch, since that shows 55+ in the blacks in my methods. You get the hand off your chest at once, and it's far easier for partner to evaluate his holdings.

Having overcalled 1♠, I'd bid 4♠ now.

Looks like an automatic 4♠ to me.

[Apollo81]

OK I didn't think I'd hear any dissenting opinions. The player who had this hand faced a different auction...when I asked what he would do against this one he said "i don't know" to which i replied "riiiiiight" (he's one of the most aggressive bidders in the field)

accept the transfer right of course, this time you have 10 and they have 9

[whereagles]

Obvious 4♠. Why didn't I bid 2♥ before?
