If you use Keycard Blackwood, would partner count
the king of diamonds when you jump to 4NT over 3.

Some people use a jump to 4 over 3 to ask for
keycards and keep 4NT as regular Blackwood. (Others
use 4NT as a natural quantitative call in this sequence.)
Perhaps the simplest rule, however, is to play a jump
to 4NT when no suit has been agreed as simple Blackwood.

Discuss this with your regular partner.
