2H was good, but I don't have anything extra for the bid. After they get their spade ruff we need to make the rest of the tricks in 4.

Pass is my friend.

I pass, would have bid 2♥ with a little less but not much less. My hearts are bad, diamonds and spades are both offside, and I fear a spade lead from shortness.

IMO 4♥ = 10, 3N = 9, _P = 5

Would bid 2♥ again if legal. Might make it, if partner has a maximum.
