Should I pull out 2♥ with that 10HCP misfit hand? Final result was -2.

1- I would not bid 7♣, but i played worse grands.

 

2- It depends on style of 2♥ bid, some people bid 2♥ upto 16 with hands that doesnt have a good suit to jump, if thats the style you may bid 2 NT i guess. If he has bad heart suit he probably has some good stuff for you. But i think i would bid 2♠ with your hand.

 

 

 

1♥--1NT

2♥--2♠ showing 5-5 minors. Since 2♠ can not be natural.
