4m = pass/correct
4 = spade raise

IMO he asked the wrong question. :) He should have asked "what do you do over 4?" :)

What's the difference between 4 and 4? surely then one becomes rkb orientated?
bridge is never always a game of exact, for those times it's all about percentages, partner and the opponents.

I'd be worried after 3NT and 4H that I had hidden an important aspect of my hand.

I woud rather bid 4C as good. good clubs.
