Scoring: XIMP

1♣*-1♠
2♠**-?

*1♣: 2+, short club about 11+ (good 11)
**2♠: 3-4♠ min. Will raise to 2♠ on any hand with 3♠ and a shortage.

2NT is a natural asking bid, partner will show shape naturally and strength.

Pass or invite?
♣ Veni, vidi, proficisci ♣

You would bid game if partner had 4 spades, but posted "pass or invite" because partner might have 3? I think you answered your own question!

N:12-14HCP if no waste value in ♣ ,4♠ is good,if have sth 3NT maybe the better with 14HCP like 4225/4324.so S should bid 3D invite to keep bidding,if N no game interesting would stop at 3♠.

Similarly, I picked up (pard opened 1♦)



yesterday. Got to a bad game opposite:

♠AKQx ♥Qxxx ♦Jxx ♣xx

however they pooched the defense, so it rolled.
