Does this sequence show extras?

[cnszsun]

1C-(1S)-DBL-(Pass)

2D

Some say double only promises hearts and opener's 2d is similar to reverse. What's the commom understanding?

[Zelandakh]

If you play X in the traditional way, as takeout, then 2♦ does not show extras. If you play X in the more common way where it shows hearts but says nothing about diamonds, then the rebid shows extras. The "common understanding" is the latter.

We have had this discussion many times and there is no consensus. One thing i think everybody agrees on is that opener shouldn't bid this way with only four clubs and a minum since he can't tolerate responder taking preference to clubs . But most of us open 1d with 4-4 minors anyway .

If you play that 2d is 12-15 you have to

- discuss what to do with 16-17

- don't make negative doubles with weak hands with 2-2 in the minors

I'm sure I missed many others. It's one of the two most common questions here (the other one being what you open on 1345 - actually the two questions are related).

 

As it has been posted many times in the above threads and the ones I missed, according to the BW standard from 2001, it is not, however, a reverse.

Negative doubles: A negative double at the one level or when there is exactly one unbid major guarantees at least four cards in any unbid major (opener may rebid in a three-card suit there in a pinch); otherwise, that requirement is only tentative (opener should not rebid in a three-card suit). When responder’s negative double guarantees length in an unbid major, opener’s bids in that suit function as would raises in the corresponding noncompetitive auction. After one club — (one of a major) — double — (pass) — ?, opener’s two-diamond rebid does not show extra values.
