Easy 4H. Almost too good for that.

Even easier after the overcall. I witnessed a pair play in a 1-1 fit at 4H after a 1S opening, one thought was is a splinter, the other thought it was natural...


It is easy. I witnessed a pair (unfortunately we) IMP counting playing 0-2 fit after 1-pass-4-passout. I bid a splinter and partner took it as natural. But I'm not alone. I read an interview in a Bridge Magazine. She was a player with championships in three countries. Her catastrophe in bridge was just alike.

2 looks pretty normal to me. I would bid 4 with one less heart.

After 2, I suppose I would bid 4 and be sad if partner flopped the right cards for 6 and passed.

I wouldn't too bad about going down in 4. With some inspired guesses, 5 looks like it comes home.

2 seems pretty obvious to me. Survive the first round!
