the 3s bidder got to 4s which makes
4c bidder played in 5c which went down due to very extreme breaks.
I think spades were 5-1.

This Responder hand is a minimum, not the worst minimum because of the nice ♣ fillers.
The correct rebid with this minimum is 3S = minimum with as little as 2 card ♠ support.
With limit raise values and 3 card support, the correct bid is 4S = a hand that would have jumped to 3S over limiting rebid by opener ( say 2C ) ..... in the 2/1 GF context .
However, I don't fault the 3D rebid showing stop(s) and needing stop(s) in ♥ for a NT game --- those ♣ more than likely will roll in.
But when Opener rebids 3H, it's time to show the 2 card support with 3S.

The full hand is here (Board 4). Steve Weinstein is one of the Bridgewinners people, I expect that if you post a comment there to let him know the correct rebid he will appreciate it.
