When North saw his cards he must have been host to two widely differing reactions.
a) He loved his hand.
b) He hated his system.
The reason for his sudden displeasure was that he playing Benjamin two bids, obliging him to open 2diamond. Partner, bless him, bid 3diamond to show a positive in diamonds - initiating precisely the sequence that North had originally feared might occur. North soldiered on with 3spade - raised to game by partner.

What would you bid now?
