Pass and double (provided that X ist take-out, of course. Without a 
clear agreement to that effect X is out....). Pass may well be my bid of 
choice if this is not my day or if I feel that I just have to avoid 
going for a number to be in contention. It also depends on my opinion of 
the abilities of my opps as declarer and defender.

Best regards
Matthias
