I missed a hand from the club tournament list, although perhaps it is obvious enough not to be interesting. This was played in round 9 against a pair of ladies who are in the better half of the field.



South paused for a couple of seconds before pausing, not a BIT by the standards of the club but still obvious. The question is whether you want to compete or not.

pass. I hope you didn't bid 3H :)
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

I always usually have 5+ cards for simple overcalls; 4 card suits are for jump overcalls. ;)

If any of the other threads are a yardstick, you probably bid 3NT or 4♠! :P

I admit that at matchpoints I'd double.
It's not good bridge, but i doubt defending 2S is our best result.

I did double, which cannot be that bad if Frances would do it. Partner bid 3♥ (no Lebensohl) and then Opener decided to come back for seconds with 3♠ ("I had a singleton heart partner"). Declarer made 8 tricks in spades (DD says 7). 3♥ has chances but would probably have drifted one off.
