Where did it go wrong?

2H=no agreement, but can be taken as reverse and GF

3NT=minimum

4C=slem interest

4D=1st or 2nd control (can bid 4NT as sign off)

4H=1st or 2nd control

PS: How do you plan the play after a Spade lead?

South bid too much, though if North has to bid 3NT both on this hand and on Axxxx Kx A10xx Qx, your system is also to blame. A big problem with jumping to show a minimum is that it consumes space on your most common hand-type.

 

I win ♠A, finesse the heart, unblock ♠Q, ruff a heart , cash ♦A, cash the top spades, and play a trump to the jack.

Over 2♥ I'm not sure why north doesn't continue to show his hand with 3♦, then south can bid 3♥ over that and however it continues, the decisions are much more informed since both players know each others shape. I suppose whether you reach 6♣ or not would depend on what north bids over 3♥, 3NT or 4♣, and if he bids 4♣ it would be hard to put on the brakes.

I stopped reading at 3NT, I didn't understand that bid.

"2H=no agreement, but can be taken as reverse and GF"

Huh? No agreements in this sequence? :)

 

If north can bid a natural 3♦ over 2♥, then why not?

South seems to be optimistic with 4♣, but I don't know this system...
