Your call depends on the meaning of partner's jump to
4.
We
recommend that this jump to game after a
2-over-1 show a
good hand
with strong heart support.
A raise to 3 would be weaker
either in
trump support
or strength (but still forcing). It would not
surprise
us to be cold for 7 or 7NT on this hand. Partner
might hold
something like this:
A
Q J 3 2
K
Q 7
A
4 2
7
6
Partner
would bid 5 and you would bid 5, showing
the king of
spades
and inviting a grand slam. Partner
should now bid seven when
he hears
that you fill in
his spade suit.
