Hi all,

Had the following auction in 2/1 this afternoon:



This is clearly a splinter, and as it's so space consuming in a 2/1 auction, presumably it's meaning should be quite specific. I was wondering what the expected club holding was, because presumably some hands with similar shape (5-1-4-3, 6-0-4-3, 6-1-4-2?) can afford to bid 3♣ along the way.

I expected xx or xxx in clubs, so didn't investigate slam. Am I off-base here in my deduction and/or my decision?

Oh, and while I think of it, is there similar thinking between partner jumping to 4♦ and making a simple rebid of 3♦?
