4♥ shows a weak distributional hand but I have a strong balanced hand. So 4♥ was a bad bid.

Now I must double because I have way more defense I am allowed to have for my 4♥-bid.

Do not agree with 4H, it seems to have worked well though and I would certainly double them now.

I'm afraid p might pull my double since I cannot have such a low O-D for my 4♥ bid.

2N followed by double is obvious.

I'll double now.
Kind regards,

I would normally not make a double like this w/r opposite a 3rd seat opener. However since it's the passed hand that bid game I would consider it really unlucky if his partner just had a bunch of undisclosed extras, so I'll double.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Don't agree with 4H last round, 2NT seems normal. Now double.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
