After S and W pass - how should the bidding progress here in 2/1 ?[/hv]

Normal biding:

(1♠)X-2♦;

4♥;ap

 

Resulting biding:

(1♠)X-2[HI];

4♦-4♠;

4NT-5♦;

6♥

[TylerE]

(1♠) - X - (whatever) - 2♥

(p) - 5♦ (Exclusion) - (p) - 5♠ (1 KC)

(p) - 6♥

 

Classic hand for exclusion...and you get to stop in 5 opp no aces, which even at that ought to have some play, esp. if partner takes a 2♥ free bid over a 2♦ call by S

i am a devout deciple of opening 1S with 5-5 in the blacks ---but this is my exception if there ever was one.

 

Whatever happens after that, we will probably arrive at the cheap grand sac ....and if they bid 7, I will probably lead the diamond ace and let them make it

Normal biding:

(1♠)X-2♦;

4♥;ap

 

Resulting biding:

(1♠)X-2[HI];

4♦-4♠;

4NT-5♦;

6♥

So:

- You double, partner bids diamonds, and you jump in hearts, showing hearts.

- You double, partner bids hearts, and you jump in diamonds, showing shortage.

 

Do you think there might be the merest hint of inconsistency between your auctions?

For me,

 

(1♠) - X -

2♥ - 2♠ -

3♦ - 3♥ -

3♠ - 5♦ -

5♠ - 6♥

 

3♦ = promises a little something (I play cheapest bid = artificial very weak after the takeout double and cuebid).

3♥ = sets trumps, if east doesn't know what trumps should be he cuebids again.

5♦ = exclusion keycard
