This hand occurred in a recent club session (a pleasing overall score of 76.25% with this partner), but the bidding on this following hand felt far from scientific.

Perhaps an easy start for most of us?

2♥ or 2♦ if playing multi

[mw64ahw]

No multis at this club yet. Still trying to persuade this partner to play as both Majors with strong options.

I will experiment with pass, due to flatness and unfavorable vulnerability.. conservative

Congratulations on a truly great score, well done

[mw64ahw]

There was a mixture of 2♥ & Pass bids, with the passers requiring 2/3 top honours at this vulnerability rather than 3/5. (Disciplined only at the club, apart from our partnership)

After a Pass there is the obvious 1♥ bid and I'll turn to East's call later.

But now your call over 2♥?

Thanks- there was a 3-way tie for 2nd with 57% which was a 1st for me

Pass. (If i Have to open for some reason it'll be 3♥, a weak two direct or via multi should be more constructive then this.)
