Just curious

This shows responder has reasonable values with with hearts and diamonds (think michaels cue-bid), but with longer . Think 5-4, or 6-5.

 

I see everyone is using 2 to show 's. In equality method, 2 shows potentially exposing the psyche.

 

Equality methods have been covered elsewhere (for instance, see this thread

equality over takeout doubles

 

1-X-1-?

Full response on this auction are:

  • DBL = balanced hand unsuit for natural 1NT or 3NT, or it shows diamonds
  • 1NT = natural
  • 2 = shows HEARTS
  • 2 = shows spades, despite them having bid them
  • 2 = hearts and diamonds, longer , non-forcing
  • 2=micheals, shows longer plus diamonds, 1RF
  • 2NT = longer than hearts, 1RF
  • 3 = both majors, longer hearts (also psyche exposure)
  • 3=spades and diamonds, potential psyche exposure
  • 3 = both majors, longer spades, potential psyche exposuree
  • 3 = request partner to bid 3NT with club stopper
