Responses to 4NT ace-asking: 5C no ace 5D ace of clubs 5H ace of diamonds 5S ace of hearts 5NT ace of spades 6C two aces of the same colour 6D two aces of the same rank 6H two non-touching aces (S+D or H+C) 7C three aces The advantage of this is that we can now open 4NT on hands such as: S AKQJT98 H KQJT D - C KQ or S KQJ H KQJT9876 D AK C - ie. looking for two specific aces. This works whenever the long suit is a major, unless the long suit is hearts and the void is in spades.
