Laci's 100% right. And that's why, according to many, there is NO aces-ask
at this point of the sequence.
And that's why such problems should include a list of meanings for the most
probable declarations in the pair's system. If you're glad to bid 4NT, BW,
and YT to bid 4NT, natural, raw answers won't help that much.
Best regards
Alain
