4NT before trumps agreed

Thanks for all the input - not sure what the consensus is - other than dont use that auction. I was concerned because my partner on that hand was an "expert".

I have some doubt whether he really is an expert. An expert would set the suit first if he wanted to RKC, and certainly would not use 4NT out of the blue as quantitative when opener's hand is still undefined as to strength.

Well a real expert will play practical bridge,

i.e. he wont risk a long convoluted auction,

which partner may or may not understand,

going via FSF is always dangerous, since

there is no universal standard.

 

So if he believed, that RKCB would help him

to decide, which level to play, he would choose

the bid, keep it simpe.

 

With kind regards
