What are these two auctions?

1♦ - (P) - 1♥ - (1♠)
X* - (P) - 3NT - X
XX

2.

1♦ - (P) - 1♥ - (1♠)
X* - (P) - 3NT - X

*3♥

V vs NV at MPs if it makes any difference.
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!

Agree with Frances here.

In certain situations it is reasonable to play xx as suggesting doubt, e.g. after a jump cue bid (1S) 3S (P) 3NT, but I don't think that would apply here.

I play a redouble of 3N only applies in a 'stressed' auction, like

(3♥) - 3N - (dbl)....

Redouble in the sample auction should be to play.
