You are red vs white:

♠ AQ2
♥ JT9542
♦ J42
♣ A

(1♠) - Pass - (3♣/♦) - ???

What is your bid on:
3♣ = 9-11 and four-card support?
3♦ = 6-8 and four-card support?

Thx in advance.

Double 3♣ (for the lead) and pass 3♦. 3♥ doesn't temp because partner will lead them and I don't want that. Low ODR - let's defend.
Be the partner you want to play with.
Trust demands integrity, balance and collaboration.

Vul against NV a double is for the lead. NV versus Vul a double or a bid suggests a sacrifice. I do not bid 4H.

3♥ at all vulnerabilities. You can always double later to stop the heart lead.

I'd bid 3h since it might be our hand for game in hearts

If the 9-11 is always balanced and strictly 9-11 (they do something else with a short suit) I would pass that. But I will bid 3♥ on any other case.

Partner is short in spades, the hand should play well in hearts, I bid 3♥. I think most people play x here as takeout of the suit opened anyway.
