Haven't pulled the trigger yet, but surely later today:
3h
3h
4S - wondering a bit about system, and Todd makes an argument for the fit jump. but over a weak overcall? I like 4S as the simple answer, but what will I do over 5c??
Problem D - I am likely wrong here, but I don't think 2h is passable. X and then a new suit. if p and I are misfit, they should have passed 2d. They must have X to show hearts, but have a bigger hand with at least 5+ hearts after all. I feel like I have system questions all over this month. I am considering 2nt and 3nt straight out. (but then again, 2h straight out should be forcing for at least one round, so why choose the X route)
1nt - hopefully folks stick with system and use constructive raises. I'm sure jack is shivering over this answer
1nt - again hopefully this is system right. assuming no spiral raises are here, but sure would like them for this hand.
C4
Problem H. I think declarer has an inferior suit in spades, but had to respond 1s. doubler has 1 or something. so, I"m starting our suit with 9 of spades.
