(1/1)

Hi all,
I was a reposnder to 1NT opener. This was my hand and I transfered first to !S then bid 3 !H. Is this the correct way to show this hand?
!S AQ986
!H AT632
!D J2
!C A
What do I do with 5 !S/4 !H? Or 5 !H/4 !S?
Thank for your replies,
Vered

Yes, transfer to spades then bidding hearts at the lowest level is traditionally used for 5-5 majors and GF. Transfer to hearts then bidding two spades is 5-5 invite. Some people will play variations of this, but I would consider this to be fairly standard.
With 45 or 54 bid Stayman then Smolen (if necessary).
