I hate 2♦ on a suit and hand like this.

But passing with a hand this good is much worse.

So I bid 2♦ anyway.

the commentators said 2♦ was pretty thoughtless and a sign of youthful exuberance. and that "let's face if, we would never bid 2♦ here" or something like that. Yes it should have gone for a number but lho with the diamond stack didn't pass and instead they reached 5♣, 2 down for a nice top.

Or:

"Wow, they bid it at both tables, I must be doing something wrong because I wouldn't bid 2D in a million years. Of course, that means that I wouldn't go for 800 on this hand either in a million years."
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
