The bidding has been as shown. It is your bid. What do you say? You should double. This is a special case of the Takeout Double, where the opponents have already bid two suits before it gets to you. Since they apparently have at least 20 points, you should have a solid hand with at least 4-4 in the two unbid suits. A hand just like this one. Partner bids 2♦. What do you say next? |

This is obviously a fight for the partscore and you have the advantage because you have found a fit. However, you suspect partner is quite weak. Deal 11 |
