Silent club:

 

1-1 strong; most 0-7 or GF

1-2 min, waiting; GF , 5/5 or some 5440s

2-3 ask; 3550 min (6 or fewer QP)

3-4 ask; 1-2 honors, no honors

4-4N ask; 2 honors, only 1 honor

6- p

 

Opener could keep asking about jacks, but since North is declaring it didn't seem worth continuing. Most 5-6 QP hands have good slam prospects and seem at worst to be on setting up the 5th card in either side suit.

C3: Copious Canape Club

 

1 (16+) - 1NT (G.F. Majors or any 5-5) -

2 (Relay) - 2 (5 & 5/5) -

2NT (Relay) - 3 (5) -

3 (Relay) - 3 (0/1 up-the-line) -

4 (Beta for controls) - 4 (1-2 controls) -

4 (CAB) - 5 (K[spades}) -

6 all pass

 

Seems like a reasonable shot, depends on the honor(s), no room to ask

1 - 1 (16+; balanced or reds)

1N - 2 (relay; reds)

3 - 3N (QP ask; 5-7)

4 - 4 (QP ask; 5 QPs)

4 - 4N (DCB, , not )

Almost any 5 QP combination in responder's hand gives us a decent shot at slam.

Something like:

1-1 (16+ ; GF 5+)

2-5 (5+ ; voidwood)

5-6 (0/3 keycards not counting A ; ok)

 

If responder is too afraid of voidwood he can also splinter:

1-1 (16+ ; GF 5+)

2-4 (5+ ; splinter)

4-4NT (serious and even number of keycards => 4 ; tactical cuebid to figure out about A)

5-6 ( cue and A ; meh)

Two-way pass:

 

pass 1

2 2

3 4

4NT 5NT

6

 

pass = 0-8 or 15+

1 = nat 9-14

2 = nat, 15+ variant

2 = catch-all with min hands

4 = catching up with previous bidding... :)

5NT = even number of keycards + a void
