If I'd bid 3♥ I would have pain after this auction, I wonder if the double of partner really means anything, he can double wwith minimum, maximum, support or anything, I feel confused

I would tend to think he has good ♣s, let's pass then.

There are too many clubs in this deck: LHO must have a fit in clubs for sure.
No way I am going to pass and defend 3N.

1 point for me , I guess I understand french guys better hehe, they were french, weren't them Alain?

I corrected the hand : ♥ were 3-3 with J onside.

I don't know where was the ♥9 anymore

They were Belgian !

But we play something really near SEF with ♦/4 most of the time.

Don't you play something similar in Spain Gonzalo ?

We often have the same opinions, so ....

You often have the same opinion as Fluffy, and you are willing to admit it in public??

Wow, that shows courage!

I guess overbidding is always more attractive than underbidding as it tends to scare the opps into silence or over-bidding.

In either case, after a 3D bid, LHO might have been more reluctant to chance 3NT but it was most certainly predicated on the expectation of at least 6 C tricks. After 3D by me, a dbl of 3NT gets left in (pard knows my hand and our H tricks will score well in NT if pard has C under control).

What if LHO bids 3S after my 3D call? Any conjecture as to the rest of the auction?

Doh!, not again!

I once made themistake to call french a belgian on this forums (kgr) and I suspect he has hated me ever since. If I didn't apologice for that before, now I do it. Please forgive me.

When I learnt bridge I learnt french standard wich had recently got through the 'Pirineos' (dunno how you say it in english nor french). I remember weak 2s was almost a crazy artificial convention for many of the players I faced at my beginning .

...how do you say that?...call french a belgian or call a Belgian French...? ... Anyway, I'm Belgian...Flemish; this is Dutch speaking...I don't mind if you would think that I'm French, but never think that because I'm Dutch speaking that I'm Dutch

no perfection here,non A-OK here

1) 3♦ underbid and can not to play a 5-3fit 4♥
2) 3♥ overbid if it's forcing and underbid if non-forcing,AND forget their super-fit on ♦
3) 4♣ intense game seeking with gross 14pts. this time overbid
4) 5♦ gamble

4♦ is the best:
1)hint ♣ singleton/void(0/1),
2)gross 11pts;
3)remain 5-4 fit 4♥
4)based on 3♣ preemptive,partner has 0-1 honor on♣ is the most possibility
