Scoring: IMP

1♦ - (2♦)* - 3♦ - (4♥)
5♦ - (P) - P - (5♥)
?

*Michael's cuebid: 5♥ + 5♠

1) Do you agree your hand is too good to open 1NT?

2) Do you agree with your 5♦ call?

3) What is your call now?

Your bidding was fine (closer to a 2N opener), now crack em off.

Full hand was something like:


I may have some of the heart honors in the wrong hands.

5♥X making was the result at both tables.

Seems a normal result on the lie.

What about bidding 4 spades before to set up a forcing pass now?

Anyway 5♦ might be my choice at the table and I'd doble now.
