bidding – Do I need more for a “big double” with a minor than a major suit?


At matchpoints, they’re vulnerable, we’re not. Right hand opponent opens one heart. I would make a (big takeout) double with the following: ♠AKT852 ♡65 ♢AK86 ♣ J. I havd 15 high card points and “distribution” will take me over 16. Over a likely two heart bid from the left hand opponent, I bid two spades.

But suppose my spades and diamonds were reversed sot that I have, ♠AKT8 ♡65 ♢AK8652 ♣ J. Now I would need to go to three diamonds over two hearts if I doubled first.

Should I therefore overcall two diamonds directly? Or do I still have enough to make a “big” double? Or could I possibly have too little to double before bidding spades with the first hand?
