Here is your hand:
♠4
♥AQJ74
♦T542
♣T83
Your Partner is Dealer and opens the bidding 1
♦. Everyone is VULNEREABLE.
What is your bid? You are playing match points.

Hope everyone responded 1♥!
You have a lovely five card suit. You might have a nice ♥ fit.
At the table on Tuesday, this hand bid 2♦.
Partner does not even promise four ♦ on this auction. They might only have three. You might not have a fit.
It ended up being fine. Partner DID have ♦ and only a singleton ♥.
But it didn't have to work out.
Remember, if you respond 1♥ and Partner does not support your ♥ you can always go back to ♦ and support Partner later on.
