All NV at MPs, you hold:

A9x
AJT9xxx
xxx
-------


You deal:

1♥-(P)-1♠-(2♣)
X - (3♣) - 3♠ - (P)
?

X was support.

Are you going to push for game here at MPs? What about at IMPs?
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!

I don't like the auction so far. I think if you open 1H you should rebid 2H.

Agree with Roger, 4H is much better than 4S for sure.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

I thought about this and wondered if 4♥ was natural in this auction. Doesn't 3♠ set spades as trumps? As you, I would have preferred 2♥ last round. I'm not saying 4♥ is a cue, just saying I'm not confident it's natural.

You better be able to bid 4♥ natural if you are going to make support doubles with 7-3 in the majors!
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
