David Grabiner: I suspect that a slow pass by a bunny shows extra values, and also that bunnies don't know how light they can be to jump after a takeout double. Pass by me is not a logical alternative, but 3H and 4H both are, and the slow pass suggests 4H over 3H, so I bid 3H. Richard Hills: Yes, at the table my reasoning duplicated that of David Grabiner, so I bid 3H. But now North continued with 4D, pass, pass to me. What now?
