"Of course, if trumps had been badly divided, South would have been set several tricks. South's fine play had produced six tricks in trumps, consist- ing of three heart ruffs' and dummy's three top trumps.

FIVE TRUMPS PRODUCE SIX TRIPS. When his partner complained about | Queen of spades. his overbidding, South *admitted that' his seven-diamond bid was slightly optimistic. "Of course I could have doubled six hearts," he said, "but I didn't think the penalty would be very large. Furthermore, if you had held one more diamond, the Grand Slam would have been a laydown, for I could have discarded your four small spades on my solid club suit.

ANSWER: Your correct bid is to pass. Even though you are void of diamonds, the possibility of improv- ing the contract by a further" bid is much less than the chance that such a bid will lead to trouble.
