favour Galle North's re-bid of no trump.
It looks as if it might be confer to win nine tricks at no trump than 10 tricks at spades. Also, know- ing that your partner has at least a five-card spade suit, it looks, as if the spade suit can be developed at no trump..

East's opening lend was the queen of diamonds. The three was played from dummy and Atkins In the North, won the trick with the
Ace.

However, after winning the first diamond trick, if you lead the queen of hearts, even though the finesse Tails, you are asanred of three heart tricks which will give
