Rich:
I bid 1 spade. Usually bid 2C (Michaels) with 5 or more in
both majors, but here the spades are longer and far better. I strongly prefer
spades over hearts and certainly prefer a spade lead if partner is on lead.
Second choice is 2 S, preemptive. That would be my choice if partner were
already a passed hand. As it is, partner could have a good hand and it may
belong to us in game. The secondary 5-card suit gives us more offensive
potential than most preempts. If the secondary suit were a minor, I’d be more inclined
to preempt so that the opponents have difficulty finding hearts.
