If partner bids 5H over X you will get to 7H


Is this a new type of "5 or 7 hand"?

lol, it's not really inconsistent that if you make a double of a high level contract and your partner bids red/white you will play 6 or 7, presumably partner is bidding with some expectation of making, and the doubler is virtually unlimited.

I agree with Phil that we do find the brave 5NT bid, we should pass 6. I'd expect at least a 6-card suit for this when partner has an easy 6 bid available.

I use 5n here to show 2 suits Major/dia
6c to show both M.

**** Like the distinction 5Nt vs. 6C.
