Dbl, cause I think partner has a penalty pass...

the spade jack makes me feel 3N is better than dbl. Pd seems unlikely to have strong holding in spade, with good hand and some spade, he will bid 3N. So now if u dbl, he is likely to bid 4H, which is not what u want. Bid 3N.

3NT (undoubled) could go for 400 or 500 opposite an average hand for partner. While 3NT might make more often than 5D, I'm not sure it's a favorite with no aces outside diamonds, no spade stopper, and not running diamonds.

I prefer 4D, over which I presume partner will bid 5D with suitable hands.

Double gets partner to bid 4H and then you can pass (4-2?) or bid 5D (perhaps doubled) opposite unsuitable hands.
I tend to lead fourth best - as opposed to the best suit, the second best suit, or the third best suit for our side

3NT

Double is right out, as you can't tolerate a 4♥ advance.
4♦ could be right. Take away the Jack of Spades and I'd probably bid it. As is,, I'm going wiht 3N.

I will bid 3NT but if someone double me I will go to 4♦ (I don't want to give the "score of the year" if my partner have no stopper in ♣). :o

i'm thinking along the lines of paul, except i x first... the reason is, partner *could* have (as free said) a penalty pass... if pard bids the dreaded 4H, guess i'll have to bid 5D

I've seen a similar hand in a bidding contest. The only difference was the 3S preempt was done before the 1D opening, so it was actually a balance of 3S-p-p-??

The 3NT bid was marked at 10, on grounds pard rates to have a spade stop. 4D was like 6 or so and double was 3. But keep in mind these scores are personal evaluations of the person who put the problem.

4D. X is poor, 3N is a crapshoot. Would not crime a pass.

Quite annoying... I reopen with double now I opened 1♦, but extrangelly would reopen with 3NT if I wasn´t able to open.
