Phil Clayton in Bridgewinners mentioned when playing 2♥ immediate negative there is an approach to allow opener to rebid 2♠ showing ♠s or the big balanced hands. Phil was unable to recall the continuations. While we could speculate what they are,
1) Does anyone recall seeing this addendum to Kokish, and can you share the continuations? and
2) What do you think about it? - OR - Should 2♥ and Kokish be mutually exclusive as some suggest?

Here's one, apologies for likely format problems on cut-and-paste:

2C-2H /2S --> 2N if no S support. O may be one-suited S or 5-5, S & X (will
bid X and level gives strength: 4X asks: with 2Q, relay, with
support and stiff, bid stiff. After relay, re-relay asks low Q.
2N = 25+ (depends on 2N ladder)
3m = F1
3H = 9 tricks, H
3S = 4S-5H
3N = H & C. Now, 4C = to play unless O is mega
4C = H & D. Now, 4D = to play unless O is mega
4D = independent H, mega: bid 4H to play, 4S with 2 Q or 4N w/ H & short.
Now, relay asks lowest Q or short.
4H = to play

R can also break relay to transfer with bupkis and a 6-carder (Cs are a problem) or play the break calls as natch..
