Deal 5	♠   ♥   ♦   ♣		WEST   NORTH   EAST   SOUTH 1NT 2♣ 3♣ pass 3♥ pass  BID    With 11 points opposite partner's 15-17, this is a forcing-to-game hand, and it is possible that a jump to 3NT (which says you have no ♣ stopper) would work. However, with two 4-card Major suits you should use the lebensohl equivalent of Stayman, which is a cue-bid of 3♣. Partner bids 3♥. What do you say?
