Scoring: MP


Your partner deals and opens 1♣, RHO overcalls 1♠, you bid 2♥ (!), 4♠ on your left and 5♣ from partner. 2♥ was probably not orthodox, I'm not sure, but there you are, what do you bid now?

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

2♥ was completely normal, now pass is completely normal likewise.
That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

If you don't bid 2♥ you are either a fool or just learning.

Partner is aware I have hearts. He bid clubs. I certainly don't want to correct and my hand could only be marginally worse for slam.

Pass.
