4D, reluctantly. I can't pass with this hand. Another diamond and I bid 5.

Yep. I agree that this sucks.

I'm really close to a pass, though. Partner must have a void, and he's going to be hard to silence, unless he has utter trash, which is possible.

But, I'm up for 4♦ opposite a 0445 8-count. Let's go!

Pass, if p has the value to bid and make 5♦ he probably also has the values to double again. Then I'm happy to defend 3♠X.

Well, I'm not going to let them play 3♠X, so I'm bidding 4♦ now.

I passed, which seems wrong in retrospect. Pard had a 0454 13 or 14 count. I'm not sure why he chose to throw it in, but we got +100 with 5♦ cold.
