They have the Majors and the HCP's, why would I want to enter the bidding and push them to game?

Pass. I can't double with only 2 hearts and bidding something in the minors at the 4+ level would be an overbid. Did partner have ♣AKxxxx out?

pass of course, never doublewith 2 hearts.

A new type of Dbl is born: the "Fluffy Dbl". It is takeout, but doesn't necessarily promisse the other suits and just hopes you have a penalty pass. :lol:

We should always assume 2/1 unless otherwise stated, because:

- If the original poster didn't bother to state his system, that means that he thinks it's obvious what he's playing. The only people who think this are 2/1 players.

Hehe, just sounds funny, a fluffy double. It's soft, but by the time the auction gets back it may be very hard :lol:

I don't know what's less funny, the jokes in this thread or doubling on this hand.

Scoring: IMP


The other table played 3N NS down 1. So, 3S-3 turned out to be a good result anyway.
