so what would this be:
1♦ X pass 2♣
pass 2♥ ?

Using the Robson/Segal rules, this would be an equal level conversion (scramble). However, if partner had bid 2♥, then 3♣ by doubler would be gosh.

Are you sure? In page 206 I see exactly the same sequence labeled as a gosh :)

You are right.. robson does describe this sequence as a gosh... so that is why I bid 1♥ instead of double I guess.... I was trying to remember their rules and forgot the thing about if you could overcall at the one level rule.... :-)
