Sistem natural 4° nobile

Scoring: MP


North 1♦ - (pass) south 1♥ -(pass)
North 2♣ (pass) South?
I think 2♠ or 3♦
But I am not convinced for both the solutions

Huh...

Neither 2♠ nor 3♦ is remotely appealing. I consider both sigificant overbids.

I'm torn betwen 2NT and 2♦. I'd probably bid 2♦, which maximizes our bidding space...

The hand is worth an invitation and the correct bid is 3♦.

If North accepts the invitation, he should bid 3♥ with 3 cards, so that the 5-3 heart fit is not lost.

You missed an alternative: 2NT.

And it would be helpful, if you could state, which suit
opener would choose to open with 4-4 in the minors.

The problem with 2S is, that it is FSF, i.e. not natural,
it would ask for 3 hearts, and for a stopper, so the bid
is out.

One could say, that 2NT and 3D are slight underbids,
although not much, because they are just invites, if you
want to play game (not unreasonable), bid 2S.

Most likely I would go with 2NT.

With kind regards

2♠ would be the 4th suit convention. It forces to game. The hand is not strong enough for that.

2NT for me. 3♦ is fine, too, especially if opener has promised five diamonds.
The world would be such a happy place, if only everyone played Acol :) --- TramTicket
