Dbl = Too strong for intial overcall of
3§, while 4§ would bypass 3NT. For the latter reason, we use 4§ as Leaping
Michaels, showing 5+ hearts, 5+ clubs, and about 14-17 hcp.
3§ = Forcing game, most likely having a balanced hand with 12-14 hcp. East could bid 3NT
to show a ª-stopper, but one stopper is probably insufficient. We feel that East should
have a double for a jump to 3NT.
