OK I can understand that, but inspite of the 4th trump, this quacky spotless hand doesn't look like 7 support points to me.

When I make a constructive raise, I go by what I read as the original defination that says that I will accept at least 1 game try.

3H (Bergen, preemptive jump raise). Shows 4+ trump with 0-6 HCP.
