Run of the mill 8-5

4d. I want to bid 3d but don't think that I get my hand across well if they bid again. Hoping for Partner to raise in D rather than bid some number of Hearts as I want to be able to get 5nt in.

 

The other danger is that the opps won't stay silent, so at least with 4d I can bid 5c over 4S or maybe even 4nt (pick one of my suits please) so that when he picks 5d I can try 5nt again :-)

4 is forcing, and better than that, it leaves room for partner to raise. With some luck partner bids 5 and I can bid GSF. Assuming dchio plays that, if not then nothing you will be left in the dark whatever you do. But getting raised in diamonds is the best info you can gather anyway.

 

EDIT: what bigbenvic said anyway
