5D.

An option is certainly 4H,
if it would be fit showing.

They will make at least 5 in each black suit, maybe 6 if the hearts behave well for them.
But who knows what is right? So I bid 5 Diamonds and let them guess.
Kind Regards

no way would I bid 4.... that is an invitation to the opps bidding 4, eiyther as 4th seat or as doubler. And if 4th seat bids 4, my subsequent 5 is not buying the contract unless 4 is the limit.

Make them guess: 5 right now.

Is there really a point to fit jumping on this hand?

I would bid 6. They will make 5 most of the time, but I don't know whether they can make 6. If partner frequently opens weak twos on 5-baggers, I might go with a conservative 5 call, inviting partner to sacrifice.

chance they make 6s are great.

unfortunately. hearts are 2-2 and the q of clubs is placed behind AK !

down 6 -300. Luckily for us our partner stopped in game +450


my left hand opponent had a clear X im still wondering why he didnt X. (hope they dont play this as neg X)

anyway over theyre double ill bid 5d. And its possible right hand wont bid 5s.
