Yesterday we had a bit of trouble with this hand. I was wondering how the forum would deal with this.

The auction starts:

(Dbl is takeout, there are no special agreements except that 3♣ by responder would've been an invitational or stronger ♦ raise)

Plan the auction.

Note: continuations will be put in new topics

3C followed by 3S over 3r seems pretty obvious.

If cue followed by 3 ♠ shows this hand, you have no problem. But I doubt that it does for Fredereic, else he had not posted this hand as a problem.



So at the table, I had tried 4 ♠ and discssued the merrits of Justins approach right after the match.

Without a listed agreement to the contrary, whatever else would it show, if not a game force with 4 spades? Having said that, I prefer to play a jump to 3M as forcing, but that is not mainstream.

Lacking agreement I would have to go down the cue-bidding route, not wanting partner to pass an undiscussed jump.
