After partner opens 1 ♠ some partners fiddle round and don't show immediate support. West has a hand that wants to play in game but 3 ♠ is a limit raise, while 4 ♠ should be reserved for pre-empt style hands. Therefore many play jacoby 2 NT, shown here to illustrate the potential. East bids 3 NT to show extra values, no shortage (any non trump suit bid is shortage, while 3 ♠ would show extra length, no shortage). 4 ♣4♦ 4♥ are 1st or 2nd round controls, 4 NT is RKCB with 5 ♦ (1 or 4 keycards), 5 ♥ is a queen ask, and 5 ♠ denies the ♠ Q
