You pick up:

♠AKxx
♥Jxxxx
♦KQx
♣Q

1♠   2♥
4♣ X Pass
4NT   5♣
5NT   ???

You play specific Kings. Redouble after the double should mean holding a first round control of clubs. 4♣ by partner should be a splinterish support for hearts, though he might be creative (or you wrong).

Please read after answering poll:

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

If pard bid well, you should have something like 5+5+3+1 = 14 top tricks. Thus 7NT.

If you don't trust partner... well, it's anybody's guess.

Opener shows heart support and void or ace in clubs. 7H should be cold.

I play the direct splinter from opener as voidshowing, thus 7NT is out for me, and I bid 7♥.

Even without the above agreement, a splinter followed by BW, with no cuebid from partner should be Exclusion - showing a void.

Last, but not least, partner holding the club ace is still there to bid 7NT over 7♥.
Kind regards,
Harald
