1D (1) - 1H
1S (2) - 2C (3)
2NT (4) - 3H (5)
3NT (6) - all pass (7)


(1) you have no rebid problems, all honors are in your long suit,
open
(2) it would be great, if this showed an unbal. hand, but ok ...
(3) FSF, I prefer inv.+, but basic 2/1 means most likely gf
(4) club stopper, not bidding NT now, would deny a full stopper,
2NT should also show a min, ...
(5) showing the 6th heart and SI, I think the hand warrants another move
(6) no interest
(7) ok

With kind regards
Marlowe

I like your auction untill 3♥. Pd showed s stiff or void in ♥ by bidding 3♣, i would bid 3 NT over 3♣

3N over 3C seems incredibly conservative. Shortness in my suit is a negative, but potentially playing 3N with 33 or 34 HCP seems ridiculous also. Could be right, but my DQ is a nice card and my black suit holdings are nothing to be ashamed of. I'm sure I would have tried 4N.
