What is partner's double?

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

Hand 1 - 2♣

Hand 2 - pass, opps playing in my suit vulnerable

Hand 3 - partner is being silly, they've passed twice so don't have much. All they are doing is telling opps hearts aren't breaking, so they will play the hand double dummy or go to spades if they wernt already

Hand 1 - 2♣
Hand 2 - double

Hand 3 - partner is telling you he had a penalty double of spades, and enough high cards/hearts that he is also interested in defending 2Hx. There's nothing 'silly' about it, but we aren't going to stand 2Hx.

Hand two: 2Nt Delay-unusual to show the two-trick discrepancy. Double would, IMO, suggest a 4-4-4-1 or 4-4-3-2 monster.

Partner is aware that my 2NT in the opponents' alleged fit auction is not a suicidal natural bid.

Waited for nearly a whole day for you to edit this. I think we have a different definition of "my suit"; I have a void in my suit?

My mistake. I had South passing and corrected it after the first reply.

1. 2C. Partner must be very weak to pass with (almost certainly) 4+H.

2. X. Some danger of defending 2H doubled making but partner might also just have 5/6 chunky hearts.

3. Max passed hand with penalty interest in spades. I'd continue 3H to ask a stopper.
