In the Precision club system, after the strong 1♣ opening, a positive response in a suit shows a five-card suit while 1NT shows a balanced hand. To show 4-4-4-1 hands with positive values, one starts by giving the negative response of 1♦ and later one makes a bid inconsistent with holding negative values, thus indicating an ‘impossible negative’.
