* natural!

Was this 2spade by West a ruse? Best to trust partner - at least that's what South thought when the bidding started in this way - so he passed! West doubled and North beat a hasty retreat to 4NT. It now looked to South as though North's 4spade was showing a big three suited hand with void spades, so South bid 5club - raised to 6club by North.

Any comment?
