- Daniel Gulyas's bidding problem: KQ84 QJ653 KJT4 ---
- I agree that double should be takeout here, but, without agreements, this is risky, and also it could lead to missing the 5-3 ♥ fit. Not easy at all. Maybe 2♥ followed by a possible takout double of 3♣ if the opportunity arises.
- Legal? Ethical?
- The rules here are: you have to alert if the treatment is unusual, natural or not, to warn the opponent he may not expect this. Therefore stayman (if it promises a major) is not alertable, 2♣ game forcing opening is not, but prec 2♣ is. Also, 1nt-2♦ ...

- This is exactly how it happened. And when he got the full info, he called the director...

- Is there a definition of relay? I think it just means a forcing bid that asks for more clarification of a hand. If 2♦ was forcing to game at all times, I would call it a game forcing relay. What about standard bidding? 2♣-2♦-2♥-2♠ (where ...

- Legal? Ethical?
- What is the definition of relay? It is a forcing bid, you cannot pass. It was never said it was game forcing. I agree my pd's explanation could have been better, but it was sorted out on that side of the screen. You have no reason to call the ...
- Legal? Ethical?
- Exactly, so why call the director?
- Legal? Ethical?
- OK, but what can be the reason for this director call? If pd did not recieve the correct info, the director will adjust the score if necessary. That call was uncalled for. The call+the raise to 3 together could convey 'hey, I know you might have bid on less ...
