If North starts with 2♦ multi preempt in majors, how do you end in hearts?

No problem, just bid 2H pass/correct. If you have a 6-6 H fit, the opps will bid spades at some point. If you have the agreement that pulling 2D-2H-2S to a minor is non-forcing with that minor and H, great! I play that as non-forcing with only a minor, though, so would end in 3D. Unfortunately it doesn't let you get to 4H, but you're in the same position after opening a natural weak 2S.

when the 2 suiter opposite 1 suiter arises, what comes to mind is STOP ASAP.

But this is a 6-6, maybe it is worth an overule. Partner having 2 red keycards is a bit of a joke its hard to judge wihtou being biased. Passing 2♦ as roger suggests is very appealing.

I'd pass 2♦, since usually my pre-empts are much trashier B)
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!
