1.
Scoring: MP

P-(P)-1♦-(2♣)
P-(P)-?

P, X, 2♥, or 2NT?

2♣ was Michaels. Sorry if you don't agree :)
a ) what is 2NT by partner?
b ) what does X mean by you here?
c ) what is your bid?

3.

P-(P)-1♦-(2♣)

I once yelled at my partner for discarding the 'wrong' card when he was subjected to a squeeze that I allowed by giving the wrong count with too high a card. Now he's allowed to pitch aces when the opponents have the king in the dummy. At trick 2. When he could have followed suit. And blame me.

1) X>2NT>>2♥>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>P...Can't you bid 2NT over partner's 2♠?
2a) If you don't have an agreement make one but I would treat it as invitational as 3♣ was available as a qbid
2b ) I have the strong Michaels call
2c) X
3) ugly choices as your ♠ spots hoover very well my inclination as a result is to make a -X and then 3NT passing partner's 4♥ call if he finds it.

Hi,

#1 X, with nearly half of the deck, I cant pass, but any other bid, is worse than X.
#2 I - a heavy relais, i.e. he showes at least inv. strength and fit for me,
we play continous Michaels, so you need a bid to find out the strength
II - No idea, I would guess penalty, make it a 5422 distribution
III - 4H, accepting the invite, p can convert to 4S
#3 3NT, I dont think we will beat 1S -3

With kind regards
Marlowe
