r/w, IMPs

AKx x KQxxx ATxx

pass - 1♠ - 1N - dbl
pass - pass - 2♥ - 3♥
dbl - 3♠ - pass - ?

So you suspect your RHO might be horsing around some. Had enough?

Note: Pass was really nothing; xx would have been a minor suit runout.

4♣. 3♣ on the previous round would have been forcing (though transfers would be better), so this is a cue-bid for spades.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

Keycard, whatever I'm not going to help him since I believe partner shows 6+ spades here.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

partner lacks heart stopper or has long spades, both scenarios sound very good.

4NT is the practical bid if you lack sound agreements (like I do), would be my choice.

5♥ exclusion, lets beat them with their own tricks :P

This was the problem of my opponents, not mine, but it was created with a 1N overcall with 2722 and ♥AQJxxxx.

They did not solve it as efficiently as the posters here and we gained 13. Counterpart preempted in hearts.

@Gnasher - I would not be convinced 3♣ was forcing unless discussed. If so, I agree 3♥ agree spades.
