Quiz on Gerber

The quiz is based on the Gerber that I am advocating ie 4C asks for aces, with responses 4D = none, 4H = one etc. 5C then asks for kings with identical responses but at the five level. Gerber is only used after an initial opening bid of 1NT or 2NT.

Partner has bid 4C, asking you for aces. What is your response in the six cases below?

1)
S A 9 7 3 2
H K 7 5 4
D A 2
C 3 2

 

2)
S K 9 7 5 4 3
H A Q 6 5 4
D---
C Q 2

 

3)
S 4 3 2
H A 9 7 6
D A 3 2
C A 3 2

 

4)
S K Q 7 6
H K 5 4
D Q J 6 2
C 3 2

 

5)
S A 4 3 2
H A 4 3 2
D K Q 3
C 7 2

 

6)
S 6
H A Q 4 3 2
D A 7 6 5 4
C 3 2

If partner now follows with a bid of five clubs, what do you say?
