Agree 100% with wyman. This is a wtp 3NT if you play it as gambling; 5C and 1C are close but when it's close I would probably pick the maximum preemptive bid. Anything else is pretty strange.

I did worry for a moment that the hand had 14 cards, but realized V stood for void. :D In some playing card sets, V, for Valet, is the Jack.

As the author of the problem is from a partially French speaking country I took it as Jack as well. ;)

So when you go to a tournament in France, those guys are really not your friend. They put you down when you misguess them (happens to me more than half the time) AND they overcharge you for parking your car. Double whammy.
