1 NTPass3♦Pass

3♦ is natural and forcing

 Your choice:
A: 3♥ - You want to go for 3 NT, but you need to have a Club stopper and a Heart stopper for that.

Bid 3♥ to show that you have a Heart stopper but no Club stopper. If North has a Club stopper, he will bid 3 NT.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ 8 5
♥ A Q 7 4
♦ A K 6 5
♣ 10 8 4
 
Q: 4 - What do you bid as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
1♦Pass1♠Pass
1 NTPass3♦Pass
3♥Pass4♣Pass
?


 Your choice:
A: 4♥ - Your partner has bid 4♣ to show a Club control. Bid 4♥ to show your Heart control.

You have already shown a Heart stopper, but a stopper is not the same as a control. Here, you have both.

Q J 10 is a stopper but not a control. A singleton is a control but not a stopper.

Your result so far:
Open Question
