Problem E4483 PASS. At first glance you have 9 tricks. You would be really unlucky on a ♠ lead. You'd go down one.
♣ bids are conventional
- 4♣ : this means sign off : Opener passes if his minor is ♣, if not he rectifies to 4♦.
- 5♣ : to play Game : Opener passes if his minor is ♣, if not he rectifies to 5♦.
