Hi guys,

I just want to clarify bids after a 2N rebid by opener.

So with the sequence: 1 1 2N

3 would show a five card suit and invites game in it or 3N
<snip>

Is there anything I am missing or need to take note of?

Looking forward to the replies.

I dont like the word invite, ... the bid is forcing. If you wanted to
say, that 3H ask partner to choose between 3NT or a heart game, I am fine,
although 3H couls still include SI, opener should show side controls, if
he has a control rich hand with 3 card support.
With kind regards

I am fine with "invites" partner to choose the correct strain, which I believe VG intended. I don't think she meant 3H could be passed.
