The law of total tricks suggests that "breaking the transfer " with four card support is very likely to be the winning action. Either it's good for you to get to the three level with your nine-card fit, or it's bad for the opposition - a win/win situation. What would do with the East hand below after West's 2diamond - showing five hearts or more?
