Transfer over strong 1C opening

The system uses 5 card majors, 3 card minor French style (1D promises 4
cards unless exactly 4S-4H-3D-2C, 44 and 33 minors are opened 1C), 15-17
1 NT, 20-21 2NT, 2C for the hands just below gameforcing strenght, 2D
for the gameforcing hands. 

1 C Opening.
============ 

1 C - 1 D : 4+H, 6+, Walsh-style e.i. may have longer diamonds.
      1 H : 4+S, 6+, Walsh-style e.i. may have longer diamonds.
      1 S : 4+D, 6+, Walsh-style e.i. no 4 card major unless responder has
            gameforcing values.
      1 NT: 6-10.
      2 C : 5+C, 10+, forcing raise.
      2 D/H/S : Strong Jump shifts
      2 NT: 6-9, 5+C.
      3 C : 0-5, 5+C, with a singleton somewhere.
      3 D/H/S : Splinters

1 C - 1 D (All this also applies to 1 C - 1 H).
=========

a) Opener accepts the transfer with 3 card support as well as with 18-19
   balanced with 4 card support. 

   1 H : a) 12-14, 3 H, balanced or unbalanced
         b) 15-17, 3 H, unbalanced
         c) 18-19, 3 H, unbalanced
         d) 18-19, 3/4 H, balanced

   Responders rebids over 1H are natural except for 2 C and 2 NT. (See below).
   Responder will almost never pass 1 H.

b) Heart raises show 4 card support:

   2 H : 12-14, 4 H, balanced or unbalanced
   3 D : Splinter, 4 H.
   3 H : 15-17, 4 H, unbalanced
   3 S : Splinter, 4 H.
   4 C : 6C-4H, strong (5 losers or less), no void.
   4 D : 6C-4H, strong (5 losers or less), with a void.
   4 H : 6C-5H, weak

c) All other bids are natural but deny 3(+) card heart support:

   1 S : 4+S, FIR (=Forcing 1 Round).
   1 NT: 12-14, balanced, could be 3-1-4-5.
   2 C : 6 C, minimum
   2 D : Reverse, 4+D-5+C
   2 S : Reverse, 4+S-5+C 
   2 NT: 18-19, balanced, denies 4 S's.
   3 C : 6 C, strong hand
   3 NT: 6 C, solid suit, all side suits stopped.
       
1 C - 1 D
1 H - 2 C    
=========

2 C is a relay, showing at least invitational values. Openers rebids are:

2 D : 12-14, balanced.         (After 1C-1H-1S-2C: 12-14, 3S, not 4 H). 
2 H : 12-14, unbalanced.       (After      "     : 12-14, 3S and 4 H).
2 S : 15-17, unbalanced.
2 NT: 18-19, balanced, 3 H.
3 H : 18-19, balanced, 4 H.
3 Level: 18-19, unbalanced. 

Except for 2H and 2 NT over 2D/H, all bids are game-forcing. 2 S over 2D/H
and 2NT over 2S are relays and ask opener to show his distribution. Other bids
are natural.


1 C - 1 D 
1 H - 2 NT 
==========

2 NT forces opener to bid 3 C. Responder then bids:

1 C - 1 D
1 H - 2 NT
3 C - Pass : Weak hand with 5C-4H.
      3 D  : 5H-5D, invitational (1C-1D-1H-3D would be forcing).
      3 H  : 5H-5C, invitational (1C-1D-1H-3C would be forcing).

If responder holds a balanced invite, he bids 2 C, followed by 2 NT. The
2 NT transfer is also used after 1 C - 1 D - 1 NT.

1 C - 1 S
=========

1 NT : Balanced minimum, could be 5431, 4441 with short diamonds.
2 D  : Unbalanced, 4+D.
