King and Ace Showings Align With One Key Difference
The text explains that showing kings matches showing aces except when a prior four no trump auction is considered. It defines a suit previously bid as one bid before the four no trump.

He instead uses the Bowers convention to aim for six no trump if North’s king is the king of spades.
