some play reverse flannery still on in this situation.

if so then 2h as 5s and 4h+ and roughly 8-11

1s followed by 2h would be a bit more.

Note this means you give up a wjs of 2h here.

1♠

"It's only when a mosquito lands on your testicles that you realize there is always a way to solve problems without using violence!"

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

Strongly disagree with the above two. 1♠ for me.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Part two:

2♥ is forcing, so just 3♣? or 2♠? or something else?

2♠ partner can blast 4♥ over that (sometimes) or more reasonably here, bid 3♥ which I will raise

1♠ then 2♠ looks normal.

I like Cyberyeti's approach above.
