With 2 hearts and also 2 diamonds East bids 3♥, for that was the suit West bid first. During the week this deal (Deal 8 - Dec.2 & 7, 2013) was played at 5 tables. Only two pairs bid and made the 4♥ contract :       Rosemary Wood & Jim Song, as well as       Patsy Hickey & Jason Motbey. Well done guys !! If West had bid 2♦ (instead of 3) he would have shown only 4 diamonds, probably a semi-balanced hand and an interest in NT. East would in that case bid 2NT (showing strength in both black suits). This contract was reached at two tables.
