* playing a strong No-Trump
~ 4 hearts only

A perfect hand for a weak no-trump? Indeed, but West as was short of the required strong no-trump minimum of 15 points he had to open 1diamond, and then had to listen to North-South reach game. North's bidding showed precisely four hearts and either five or six spades.
