[Flameous]

We were playing with couple of friends today and I hold this major monster. We played a fun system called sports club which has something like polish clubs 1♣ so this was obvious sports club opener.

3♥ - p - 3♠ - p
5♣3 - X - XX4 - p
5♦5 - X - XX6 - ap

1: negative or unbal. pos. without majors.
2: 4th suit
3: Exclusion (later I realised that this was really bad bid )
4: 0 Keys
5: Asks for ♠Q
6: Was undiscussed but took it as suggestion to play

How would you have bid and if the same opportunity for 5♦XX was offered, would you have taken it?


Now, here is what p had.

♥K is on the right side so 6♠ is practically showdown. We ended up making 5♦XX +1. Losing one imp since opponents found "sacrifice" in 5♦XX
