This was a hand form  under 50  we never got to finish   I was so happy I finally got to bid 2NT  as usually there is interference  and then opp booted 
 
  I had planned to bid 4 Ds    starting cue bidding.....    
 Is that right and how would it go  from there? 
 or should I just bid 4nt ?

Gipp these are the openers rebids and what they mean...
  • Jump to 4 agreed major - minimum no slam interest
  • 3nt - balanced hand  15-17 (some say this promises good trumps)
  • 3 agreed major - 6+ suit - no singleton or void
 
(I think of these 3 bids as bad/better/best...with the best bid the cheapest bid) 
 
 
Then
  • 3 of a new suit is a singleton or void
  • 4 of a new suit is a good 5 card side suit

Gipp, this is a Blackwood hand. You're in the slam range. The 5 level is safe. And you have a control in every side suit.
 
If you should q-bid 4D and hear 5C from pd, you would have created a guessing game.

Thanks Ross    I think  I should have titled this   cue  or  Blackwood?
I play   3 spade response  as    showing  a  King better than  opener  so  I  am thinking  slam  and   wanted to know  the best way  to  do it,
I had thought  cue bidding    Pard thought   blackwood   Thanks Jo
