Why yikes? We have the Sir Robin 2NT available when responder has some reason to avoid 2♠ or passing 2♥.


Because this hand is WAY too good for a 15-20 2♥.

Modified LTC with 3 aces and one queen suggests it's 4 losers anyway.

Axx(x), xxx, xx xxxx(x) (or same shapes with ♠J and a minor king) is not much of a hand, but plenty to want to be in 4♥.
