I think South is good enough for a three card limit raise so start with XX

If not, then easily worth a constructive raise so start with an artificial 2H

North has an easy game raise

Both underbid just calculate your modified losers.
South is worth a 3-card limit raise and I'd bid 4♠ opposite a simple raise with the North hand.

Also may be better to use Kokish 3-way game tries and ask for trump help.
2N: reverse help suit try
3♣: asks for trump honours
Higher: splinter, don't bid 3♠ as a ♣ splinter when to you want to force to game.

After 3♣
3♦ none or Ace, 3♥ asks
3♥ K
3♠ Q
With 2 honours you can control bid in case opener has a slam going hand.

Hi,

South has a max, why does he not accept?

With kind regards
