We have the agreement that 2NT is never to play in competitive auctions.
Mostly 2NT in competition would show the stronger or more flexible hand.
We play support DBL's, but the DBL here show a good hand (or extra's with support).
We play Lebensohl after (2M)-DBL
Q: Should 2NT be like Lebensohl OR should 2NT be the stronger hands, with 3X non-forcing?

Looks like good/bad 2NT to me (which, in this situation, is a lot like Lebensohl). But it could be a lot of things.

2NT natural and invitational is not out of the question, but I don't think it is high on the list.

2N for me would be two places to play. I might be 2-4-3-4 or something like that for this bid, where I want partner to bid 3♣ with 4, or rebid diamonds if he has 3♣ and 5♦

good/bad


2nt forces 3c and I will
pass or rebid 2d or 2h weakish.

direct 3/2 would be stronger.

Looks like scrambling to me
