  1. No messing about! If ACOL then however could easily miss grand. Basic ACOL doesn't handle this hand very well as you have to start with 2C as there is no bid to show this hand properly. More advanced partnerships adopt the Jacoby 2NT convention for this type of hand ( GF, opening hand strength, 4+ trumps, no shortage).

    Over 2C west will rebid 2H (not 2S as that would represent a stronger hand), and then East can Blackwood 4NT (Roman Keycard Blackwood -RKCB-is vastly superior to ordinary Blackwood). West would show 2 Aces and QH, and east would sign off in 6H.
