Playing with a good good partner unfav imps you pick up

73 K987 A954 T92

1♣-1♥-1NT-p
2♥-p-2NT-p
3♣-p-?

If you bid 3♦ partner will bid 3N.
If you bid 4♣ partner bids 4♦.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

Hi,

I will settle for 3NT, so this means I go via 3D.

With kind regards

In my view, partner is showing a hand with some slam interest. (I play a style where I will open 1m, rather than 2♣ on strong hands with a minor.) Given that I have 3 card support and an ace and a king, I am optimistic. My planned auction:

1♣

1♥

2♥

2NT

3♣

* Showing a stopper or cue for clubs
** Cue for clubs and clarifying that 3♦ was a cue for clubs

and then:
5♣

or
4NT

5♣ (1 or 4)
or
4♠

Agree with 1NT and 2NT. Now 3D and I will pass 3NT.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

Yes that's what I'd do. The suggestion of 3♥ over 2♥ is lol. I hate to break it to a certain poster or two, but a cuebid is not automatically the right answer on every problem!
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Partner should bid 3S not 3N.
