COACHING CORNER 9

This was an interesting hand.

Sitting in 3rd seat I really didn't want to open 1D (playing 5 card majors) so chose to open 1NT East doubled with 16 points.

What does south do with no points at all?

Natasha (in my view rightly bid 2D transferring to a 4 card suit) West knowing they had the balance of points and knowing we would end in hearts bid 3C. I should have passed of course, but with extra points and 4 card support for what i thought was a 5 card suit bid 3H where the bidding stopped. We made 7 tricks for middle board.

How would you have bid it?

What happened at your table?
