Matchpoints, you are white, their principally red.
Two passes to RHO, who bids 1C.
You hold KQJx / 9x / Jxxx / KTx.
(a) Do you ovecrall 1S?
(b) Assume you pass in (a).
LHO bids 2C, explained as inveretd after pd asks, & RHO hurriedly passes.
What's your call? [Answer (a) and (b) before looking at (c).] (c) Pd held Tx / KQ8xx / K98x / xx.
Should he have bid 2H over the passed-hand 2C?
Does the
re-opening double or rebid a 6-carder?

With nobody vulnerable you hold s QT9853 h 42 d JT c AKQ and open 1s playing 5 card majors and negative doubles. LHO overcalls 2h and this is passed roud to you. What do you bid? I said that double is 'automatic' with this hand, but only one other out of the club of 40 people agreed with me and everybody else said (did) bid 2s. I think that 2s is a terrible bid.
Are 95% of the club wrong?
