Ya the lack of strength is compensated by good concentrated values and lots of tricks.

Also Jilly's article was great.
OK

Unanimous 2♥ pls? This hand is no worse than x KQxx AKQJT Qxx where everyone would reverse.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

A 2♥ reverse is a perfect description here of this hand worth at least 7 playing tricks.

15-2 at the moment...

Hi,

2H.

If you are strong enough for 3D, you are strong enough for 2H.

Given that you have only 15HCP and since you are void in p suit,
you may take the conservative approach and downngrade the
hand to a 2D response.

But the hand is able to produce 7 tricks in a diamond or NT contract,
and that is a lot.

With kind regards
Marlowe

I was kibbing Garozzo, he bid 3♦ and I didn't understand why, that's the reason I posted this hand. But as I realized later, in his system, they have a conventional bid if partner had both majors (2♠ I think). Probably a systemic difference. Maybe someone can confirm.
Thanks all for the input.

In italian system a "reverse" response shows a strong two suiter. The heart here is slightly too weak for that.
The diamond here is too strong for bidding 2♦.

In the system an overall strong hand (16+) is opened 1♣ artificially. Below 16 with strong two suiter is bid "reverse". So 3♦ becomes a clear cut message: "I have a solid suit". Bid 4♥ next round to perfect the decription.


With
♠ - ♥ KQxx ♦ AKQxxx ♣ xxx
Open 1♦ rebid 3♦ support 4♥

♠ - ♥ AKxx ♦ AKxxxx ♣ xxx
Open 1♦ rebid 2♥ then 3♦

♠ - ♥ AKQx ♦ Axxxxx ♣ xxx
Open 1♥! rebid 2♦ then 3♦

(In the actual auction he bids 3NT, probabily because of their economic bidding "tempo"
1♠ always denys 4x♥)
