You are second seat, and the auction has unfolded as follows:

1♣ - 1♠ (by you) - 2♥ - 3♥
Dbl - ???

What would a Pass show?
What would a Redouble show?
What would 3♠ show?
What would 3 NT show?
What is my minimum for a 4♠ bid
What Is a bid of four of either minor indicate?

Thanks,

Confused by the Bidding

what was 2H? Forcing or Nonforcing?
what was 3H? Hopefully it showed a
spade fit.

3S is min, 4S is a game try (old joke
- I know), anythingelse is only making
lots of air.

As Marlowe said it should be interesting to know whether 2♥ was forcing or not.

Anyway :

What would a Pass show?

Not a good hand but not the worst (3♠ bid)

What would a Redouble show?

Not usual but I think I would take it as a balanced hand with a light or semi stopper in ♥

What would 3♠ show?

I play it as the sub minimum hand

What would 3 NT show?

Good bal with good stopper(s) in ♥

What is my minimum for a 4♠ bid

All the hands you want to be in game facing a limit raise

What Is a bid of four of either minor indicate?

A great hand with slam intentions but I don't know if it's still possible in an auction like this (You should maybe add 15-20 HCP in you deck of cards ! ). Maybe if 2♥ was light and non forcing.

pass = nothing to say: no extra length, no stopper ♥
RDbl = min with good stoppers ♥
3♠ = min, 6+♠
3NT = max with good stoppers ♥

minimum for 4♠: extra length, maximum hand

dunno what meaning I'd give to 4m
