I'll give you another one:

(3S)-4C Gerber.

I'm guessing that if an opening 4C is Gerber, an opening 4NT is Blackwood? Or have they got the Specific Ace Ask?

I am fairly sure that for the pair that opened a Gerber 4♣ against me 4NT was 28-30 balanced.

They won't have heard of that; it is Lesson 99. And yes they will play that 1NT-4NT is Blackwood AND 1NT-4C is Gerber.

As bluejak says in another thread they deserve sympathy; "forgive them for they know not what they do".
