[big snip]
 
Richard Hills:
 
But is it normal in that pair's Blue Club canape
style?
 
AG : What else could it show ? A 2NT rebid also would be a possibility (no
18-count 5332 in a 1H opening, remember), but some use it artificially (55
majors).
 
>From my experience in playing against Blue Club, a
1D opening followed by a 3H jump reverse shows
greater playing strength than a 1H opening and a 3H
jump rebid.
 
AG : but it also shows diamonds. Perhaps there is some confusion with Roman
Club;
A 1D opening couldn't be artificial and preparing a very srtong
canapé-reverse, unless it was forcing, and it clearly isn't in Blue Club.
See below.
Greater playing strength than 1H-3H is shown by opening 1H and rebidding 4H,
as most of us would do.
 
> Therefore, unless evidence was provided to the
contrary, as TD I would rule that East-West had an
(implicit or explicit) agreement that 1D-then-3H
could be as few as two diamonds and as many as six
hearts.
 
AG : not if playing Blue Club. 
 
 
Let's take some examples :
 
                            Blue Club                           Roman Club
 
xx                        1H - 1S - 2H                     1D - 1H - 1NT
AQJxx                2H in some versions

xx                        1D - 1S - 2H                    1D - 1H - 1NT
(absolute max)

AKJ10xxx           or perhaps open 1C
