I can't see how anyone could run themself up to that rotten contract.

A "good" bidding could go along those lines.

Pass(1)     1Cl(2)
1NT (3)     2Di(4)
2He (5)     3He(6)
4Cl (7)     4Di(8)
4He (9)     4NT(10)
5Di (11)    5He(12)


1   (12)13-16 any can be 17 balanced 
2   8+ any 
3   13-14 NT without 4+ major or 15-17 can even have 5cd major
4   forcing 2He as onesuited slam try in any suit or game slam going
    with minors.
5   forced bid
6   at least gameforce with 6+ heart
7   better show my A my hand looks a lot better than a flat 4234, 4333

8   good i am in with di Cue 
9   Might as well slow this down a little bit
10  not yet i am still interested 
11  1 Keycard  
12  darn better put the brakes on.

Good bidding Easy to understand and yet it is even banned on
superchart go figure.
