Partner's response :
- With 2 low cards in the opponent's suit : Pass
- With a 2nd rank control (singleton or K) : 6 in the agreed major
- With a 1st rank control (void or Ace) : the partner names the Il nomme la couleur adverse (5 ♠ ou 5 ♥) : the partner will then decide to go to small or grand slam

Exercise E7293 6♥. Agree with your partner's proposal. You have a stopper in the opponent's suit. But don't go for a grand slam with your 2 low ♠ cards. A small slam will be good enough !
5♥ or 5♠ bid slam proposal. No overcall
A level 5 jump raise is a small slam proposal. You go for it when you have 2 high honors in the trump suit. Else, just Pass !
