There is no problem in this sequence,but 2♠ is alerted as 9hcp.

I think 9hcp is inappropriate,it is better to be alerted as 7-9hcp.

I guess it is pick on Lycier day.

 

You opened a 15-17 1NT with a bad 14. Partner's 2S gave you an easy pass for a normal result, but you jump to game. You bid WAY too much.

 

Given that the alternative would be a transfer, giving no chance to reach Hearts, I prefer Stayman.

Surely the point is that next time I, you, Lycier or whoever will have a 16 count 1N opener and after the same sequence up to 2S will bid on the assumption that P has a 9 count, because that is what it says in the scrip.

Its not a bad 14 for NT playing the long finesse strategy.
