South will go to four no trump. From this bid North knows that his partner is not void in hearts and diamonds--otherwise he would not attempt to play the hand at no trump. However, North has 10 desire to play the hand at no trump, and would like to play the hand för alam. So his next bid should be five hearts,
This bid definitely shows South that North holds two five-card suits and they must both be beaded by the ace-king, due to the strong bid- - dling.
South starts to figure the hand solid. South has five high cards up. The heart suit is practically

upon which losing cards in the North hand can be discarded. The 7.
| bidding has shown that there are not over three black cards in the North hand, therefore two losing diamonds can be discarded on the black cards and the other losing diamond can be ruffed.
Therefore South's next bid should be seven hearts, as he hav located home for every losing
card.
It is true that the play of the hand will produce seven no trump due to the fact that the queen of diamonds drops, but this 1s lucky brenk not to be expected, aid the safer play is for hearts.
