Scoring: IMP

2♣*-(4♣**)-P-(6♥)
?

* 2♣ = 10-14, 5+♣s, no 4 card major
** undiscussed


a ) agree with 2♣ opening? 1♣ would have been 15+ unbal or 20-21 or 24+ bal, higher ♣ bids preemptive.
b ) what now? If you pass or X, what do you lead?

Opponents are good (though goofy) junior players and it's pretty late at night.
I once yelled at my partner for discarding the 'wrong' card when he was subjected to a squeeze that I allowed by giving the wrong count with too high a card. Now he's allowed to pitch aces when the opponents have the king in the dummy. At trick 2. When he could have followed suit. And blame me.

Yep, pass, and lead ace diamonds (dummy probably has spades and hearts).

Seems like a fine 2♣ to me.

P and A♦ seems pretty normal...

Meh it's better to play 4C as D+M or D+specific major but whatever, I think they have the majors too!

Bidding now is absurd.
