This reminds me of a splinter sequence mypartner invented once, playing non forcing NT:

1♠-1NT
2♣-3♠

and I was almost sure he was splintering on my suit, because whenever I had bid a 3 card minor with 15-17 balanced I had hit my partner with 6 cards, this was no exception B), we were crazy boys :angry:

Fluffy - in my other partnership we actually have this auction:

1 major - 1 forcing NT
2x - 3N

Is a splinter of opener's 2nd with a stiff in opener's major. With a balanced 12+ - 14++ we respond 2N to the opening bid so the delayed 4N doesn't exist for us.

Of course Opener can pass 3N, since its frequently the right spot.
