IMPs, advanced GIB. This seems simple enough. If you have 2 hearts and 2 spades, why would you pass 2 hearts when you could have changed it to 2 spades? And not only that, it caused them to miss 4 spades so I got like 8.4 IMPs just for this.

It could be argued that 2C is non-forcing, and West's choice to introduce Hearts when he could have passed, in the expectation that his LHO may well have 4 of them, might indicate an expectation that West's hearts are pretty robust. 2S correction is still correct, but the expected gain is probably not great.

 

I don't understand why I cannot find this hand in MyHands. Any ideas?
