interesting lunch hand

[Jonathan Schiff]

It's probably easier seeing all 4 hands, but I didn't want to send to
everyone one hand and take forever bidding over email. How do you see
this bidding going?
North dealer (no one vul).

I see it as
1C - 2H - P - and then the interesting stuff happens.
I could see bidding 3C (as a limit raise or better, depending on how you
play, but either way it won't be passed) OR 4H.
If it's 3C, north has an easier time rebidding his clubs. If it's 4H,
north may or may not sacrifice at 5C.
So I'm assuming the contract ends at either 4H or 5C.
