smerriman Posted November 15, 2019 Report Share Posted November 15, 2019 With 10 HCP and 5 hearts you would bid 2♥. Double here shows exactly 4 hearts, OR a hand with 5+ hearts that is too weak to bid 2♥. (Obviously, it depends a bit on your shape / where your honors are located, since pass is an option too.) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apollo1201 Posted November 16, 2019 Report Share Posted November 16, 2019 Unless your 6 HCPs look like this, pass can seriously be considered as partner will really expect some kind of positive hand xQJTxxKxxxxxx And with 10 and 5H, unless they look like this where X is probably safer, 2H is ok but keeping in mind you’re minimum in case partner asks or invites later on QJJxxxxJxxKQxx Last, with 10+ and only 4H, you also X unless you have a natural forcing and more descriptive call (e.g. with 5C and 4H, 2C is better).
