Scoring: IMP

East opens 3♥

... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Are we telling you how we would bid?

South clearly passes.

North probably passes too but some crazies out there might try 3NT. If they do I just don't see south passing but lord knows what he does. 4♣ as natural or stayman, north 4♦ as natural or stayman, south 4♥? North 4NT or 5♣?

I think preempts should be made illegal :angry:

North has to pass. He is just a couple of aces short of a wtp 6♣ overcall though.

+200

so you can make it from south, but the canape overcall fall this time on a heart lead!

But then, someone has to lead a heart from ♥KJ10xxxx I don't think lightner helps here.

South passes.

North has a mandatory 6♦ bid - they're all the rage these days.

B)
Still decidedly intermediate - don't take my guesses as authoritative.

Right, sorry. Bidding your longest suit at the 6 level is passé.
