Am I mad ?

Im pretty sure pd doesnt expect his crappy Qxxxx+ to land on AKxx in hand full of controls.

If your pd would open 2nt would you bid 3nt on Qxxxxx ? Probably not

What if youd know he has AKx and your Qxxxxx just provides 3 extra tricks ? All would bid 3nt

same here pd x and bid 2nt and you with Qxxxxx and nothing else presume 3 is much better but if you would know your Qxxxxx , your 2 crappy points are in fact 6 tricks , 3nt is the better option.

I would pass. This hand is not a 2NT bid. You have 5 tricks and that is it. If you double what is poor partner supposed to do with a 2443 shape? You want to play 3D in your 4-2 fit? Sure you may have a 4-4 C fit. You may well not though as well.

teams 2 alerted as nonforcing Playing with an expert friend . He passed. Can you ever consider passing this because I cant.

 

IMO 2N = 10, P = 9, _X = 6.

Pass is sensible. Anything else may be a charge into the valley of death. If you don't pass, you may prefer 2N to X because, when partner has nothing, you can struggle in 2N yourself rather than watch partner suffering in a 4-2 fit. Lacking relevant agreements, there are additional dangers. For example will partner treat 2N as natural or unusual? If natural, what do advancer's bids mean? [/hv]

This rates to be a partscore at best. Pard may have 0 hcp, but he may easily have the 10, in which case this goes down no sweat.

 

If you can't stand to pass, by all means bid 2NT or 3 (there's a good chance pard has 4 of them), but pass is more likely to be your best bet here.
