You open 1♦ and partner bids 1♠.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

I'm going with 3♣, intending to follow-up with 3NT.

2NT is what I have. I do not like to off partner a j/s to C on this hand type. I would raise to 2NT had partner bid 1NT using 2/1 and this is the identical problem, a non problem.

2NT. It has its flaws, but so does every alternative. At least it represents the approximate power and shape of the hand.

2C and hope partner has another bid. He will know I have a fear: to get to his S, poor H-stop. Maybe he will clarify. May miss close game when SKxxxx, HAxx Dxx Cxx, but add any honor and he bids again.

2N is obvious.

♥KJ = bad, ♠AQ and ♦KJTxx = good.

2NT. All other bids 0.
That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

Isn't it nice that 2N is non-forcing?

Hi,

I wont force to game, and a 2C bid is
even for me too heavy.
So 2NT it is, not the worts last option to
have.

With kind regards

Very easy 2NT rebid.
3♣ is sick on A empty fourth IMO.
If for some reason I couldn't rebid 2NT I'd bid 2♣ long before 3♣.
Kind regards,
Harald

I care about the friends I have made on BBO. Also, I am extremely concerned about the environment/ ecology/ wildlife/ the little planet that we call Earth. How much more of the world's habitat and food supply for animals do we plan on destroying. How many more wetlands are we going to drain, fill, and build on? How many more sand dunes are we going to knock down in the interests of high-rise hotels or luxury homes?

i agree with 2NT. Gives P the most options for his/her next bid, and I suspect that NT should be played from my side.
