In the bidding, don't become excited just because your partner makes an original bid and you hold a strong hand-aa North does. Make your one-over-one force.

Now, when your partner bids two no trumps, remember that he is simply stating that he thinks there is game in the hand. Ho may need your spade suit for tricks, so don't jump the contract to four spades or four no trumps. Show your partner that you have a rebiddable spade suit,

if this information is of no assistance to him, and he passes, do not Jeopardize the hand by getting into a high contract. Out Mide of your two acea and a king, and the long spade suit about which he already knows, you do not have any playing possibilities in the hand.

Of course, If West has five spíades, South should plan the hand ao that West doesn't get in to cash his fith spada.
