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

3NT. P will bid on if he has near-opening values.

3NT. By the way, you don't have a 2C opener IMO.

4H.
I wouldn't have opened this 2C.

Partner can easily have, say, x AQJ9xx xx xxxx when 3NT might go off with 6H playable(ish).

4♥. My quick tricks and heart T are useful for 4♥.

3N is betting partner's hearts suck and has side Q's and J's. I can't think why either should be the case.

For my positives, partner has shown 2/top 3, or 3/top 5, and unless he's AK, "something" else. 3♥ should show an extra heart, at least. Why can't 6♥ be on? The only reason 6♥ rather than 6NT is that he might have to ruff something to get to the rest of his hearts.

I don't like 3NT - if all partner has is hearts, we have 6 tricks, and ♥AKxxxx is 8...

Alternatively, 6♣ could be on when partner is 1=6=2=4.

Add me to the crowd that doesn't want to open 2♣ with this hand; this auction (alternatively, 2♣-3♦; 3♠-4♦, with 3NT and 5♦, but not 6, on) is why.

Yeah bidding 3N instead of 4H would be a terrible error

For Ms Hinden ♥:
Sure, it depends on partnership agreements..
But with such a hand - 4 losers - I like to open 2♣.
You need only a few well placed points. to make 4♠.

I wanted to address this to Ms Hinden)
