id love to pass this hand and take a chance that I can back in later if needed but there
is too much danger the next bid might be 3n 4d 5d and I will no longer be able to
compete with any degree of safety. I would much rather take my chances at a relatively
low level especially since an
x
now will probably provide the opps with any overly useful
information as to how to play the hand and possibly lead
us to a decent sacrifice if the opps go to say 3n or even 5d.
We will occasionally get overboard since we are a bit light on values and shape but
it is probably worthwhile to bid immediately especially at imps where a good sac can
be worth a lot of Imps.

Close but still easy double. You're on the border, but your shape is great, H:AJTx is really nice, and you suspect your DK is working.

Assuming 2♦ is weak 2, this is a clear dbl for me.

We have an opening, no lost values, 4-4M, tolerance for ♣,... Almost a textbook Dbl
