Thanks for your reply. I do understand, now, that it was not the correct bid. When I made it, my intention was to disrupt their bidding more than anything else. I had no idea we would have such a good fit and so many hearts between us (10).

Thanks so much.

Thanks.

Thanks for your thoughtful and detailed comments.

We had a hand today that I did not know how to bid. East opened 1NT As South, I held 5 Hearts (AKQ), a total of 14 HCP, no other biddable suit. My partner took my 2 Heart bid as a preempt and passed. Was he correct? If so, how do you indicate an opening hand and suit preference after opponent's 1 NT? We should have been in 4 Hearts.
