I bid 2S and X. Didn't matter what you did on the second one. On the first one I missed 500 or 800 by not doubling to get to a no play 3N, but partner wrapped it.

At the other table they doubled, but LHO bid 3H! Now the other guy couldn't make a responsive double, so he bid 3N and went down 3.

2 similar double or overcall situations:
1: R/R imps, AQJxx --- Kxxx Qxxx. RHO opens 2H.
2: R/R imps, Axx AJxxx AQT xx. RHO opens 3C.
IMO
  • 2 = 10, _X = 5.
  • _X = 10, 3 = 8.
