East, a limited player who wrote bridge articles of dubious relevance, did not bid over North's 3club, but when West came in with 4diamond East considered that his hand had much improved and bid 4spade. This assessment was further enhanced when South bid 5club - West was marked with a shortage. So when West bid 5heart and North doubled, what would you say now? What did 5heart mean?
