. This was a cue-bid agreeing hearts, and showed the ace as opposed to a splinter. When West doubled this North-South kept bidding until the music stopped at 6. As my correspondent says " A more efficient auction after the first two bids would be 3 by South, followed by 4 by North, then 4 by South. But then in this method, neither North nor South would have a lot more in reserve to show and would subside in game only"
