gnasher Posted June 13, 2008 Report Share Posted June 13, 2008 With the methods described, 4♥ over 3NT is forcing. I'd assume that without discussion (or, at least, I would have done in the days when I played this system). Opener has promised only four hearts, but about 18+ if balanced. For responder to want to play 4♥ he must have four of them too. However, he can have four hearts only if he was planning to raise to game over a minimum rebid. Therefore we are known to have approximately the values for slam, so 4♥ is forcing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
