Handling Interference

Update Below

Lot’s of interesting hands in today’s Unit Game. Here is one for you:

You are in 4th seat (favorable vul), and your partner opens one diamond. RHO overcalls two spades. What is your call?

First, how good is your hand in context of the auction so far? Singleton spade is a nice feature. You have three card support for partner’s suit, including two honors. You have five clubs, including King-Queen touching honors. I suggest it’s worth 11 or 12 points. Don’t you think you should bid? If so, what’s your call?

My recommendation tomorrow.

My recommendation: This is a perfect hand for a negative double. You promise at least four hearts and have clubs. Also, you would be happy if partner rebids her diamond suit.
