How do you play RDBL and Pass here?


Note: I didn't realize that when we have Jxx opposite Qx, then Axxxxx versus Kx is better for us than AKxxxx vs xx because opps cannot maybe not duck the first trick.

I've never discussed this particular auction but by the general rule "half stopper" would be the default meaning for me.

redouble= I have the ace and I think it's better that you declare
pass = half a stopper
3NT = full stopper

others = no stopper.

Mancoff convention:

Pass = Half stopper or full stopper (redouble by partner asks)
Redouble = No stopper, 2-3 hearts (at best Jx)
3NT = Double stopper
Cue = Void in their suit
Other = Singleton in their suit
