Finch Posted January 4, 2011 Report Share Posted January 4, 2011 Maybe i live in a world on my own but I was pretty sure that this was like the 1d-1s-4d auction, where a 4d bid would show basically exactly this hand. 6 good hearts, 4 card diamond support, but not particularly strong in HCP (say <17). What do other people use 4d for after 1h-2d? There really aren't that many hands which can unilaterally bypass 3N here. The main reason you are in a world of your own is that this is contested auction, so it's not the same as either 1D - 1S - 4D, nor as 1H - pass - 2D - pass (particularly if you play 2D as game forcing). Not playing 2/1 I play 1H - 2D - 4D as 5-card support, extra values, over which 4H and 4NT are NF and others are cues.Playing 2/1 it's an interesting idea for 1H - 2D - 4D. Another possible meaning is to play that as keycard for diamonds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
