don't assume you're getting rich out of this.


I'm not. I just think that setting this -2 is more likely than it is to guess right at the 5 level :)

Very nice problem!

First question one needs to ask is if pass is forcing. There are definitely some good arguments for it, I guess forcing is the best way to play this but I haven't thought about this before. <_<

If I think partner will interpret pass as forcing, then imo that's the best option. Otherwise I prefer 5♠.
