Not bad maybe, but not good definitely: no fit for partner, no long suit, and xxx in rho (who rates to be strong). I'll pass now but the serious things will happen when lho's 2S is passed back to me...

2S.

Even if it is a reopening, 2D should not be too far away from a direct 2D,
so you have to make a move.

don't confuse this with a passed hand w/o interference. Remember that p is generally assuming you have around 7 hcp for their balancing action and you do not have a dia fit and not all that much more than what p expects. If you happen to miss a snarky game once in a while sobeit but better to stay low increasing the odds of a positive score. P chose 2d rather than x or NT for some reason and this alone increases the odds your side has no fit. Oh and those 3 small spades are ugllllly for offense
