I have a question about the 2/1 auction 1♥-1N*-2(♣or♦)

*Forcing

Using the common convention that 2♠ is a strong raise of partner's minor suit, what hand would I be expected to have for

1) 2♠

vs

2) 3♣

Given what you open on.....


2s=limit raise, whatever that means for you....for me 12-13 support pts\ often unbalanced.
Much less if partner opens very very sound.

3c/d=less.....

btw keep in mind 2c/2d rebid by partner may only be 3 card suit...so you need alot of clubs/d......

Yes in 2/1 this is a very messy auction....weakness.
