1. 4♥ (unless partner has some real insanity in his vulnerable weak 2 bids)

2. I bid 3♥ if a fit jump, otherwise a wtp 4♦.

1. If we are playing it, I bid 2nt Ogust investigating a possible 3nt game if partner has a good suit (2 of the top 3 cards), otherwise I'll be bidding 4♥.


2. It depends on my mood between 4♦ and 4♠ (and maybe 3♦). I'm not sure if I want to communicate how strong I am as opposed to just take a punt in game giving up on slam but hoping to hear less competition.

1. 2 NT, maybe 3 NT is better at MPs.
2. 4♦, looking for slam when partner gives a sign of life.
