How about 1H - 2H - 6H? That's only slightly less awful than Hanoi's auction.

Is my auction more awful than the one you proposed for reaching 6♥? A limit bid with 10 HCP's and a 4333?

Yes I think so, much more. Just my opinion of course, but making a slam try after 2H and then jumping to 6H when partner merely bids 4H looks very strange to me.

My mistake for not adding KC to my auction. I was in a hurry... ;)

Perhaps 4♣ is also a good bid by responder over 3♣ game trial, max of 2♥ and AAQ with AQ in the suit asked for help. Or maybe i am just resulting..

Sorry but that would still be a very bad auction. First of all, after 1H - 2H, I think it is wrong to investige slam. Second, after 1H - 2H - 3C, I think it is wrong to bid 4H. Third, after 1H - 2H - 3C - 4H, I think it is terrible to bid on.

What's wrong with a simple DD-vision Ace-ask sequence?
4♣ - 4♠ (Gerber - 2 Aces)
5♣ - 5♦ (King ask - 0 Kings)
6♣ - 6♥ (Queen ask - 1 Queen)

I believe we're all resulting for the normal auction is 1H-2H-4H. Some people just don't like other's resulting but they're own.
