The tip of the day by Kit Woolsey(#89) !
.After a minor support, naming a new suit doesn't indicate a length, but some strength and a desire to play NT.
With this hand, the responder (South) bids 2♠. He shows a strength in ♠, and enough points to play 3NT. With 4 cards of ♠, he would have bid 1♠ on the first round of auction.
