* 5 heart, 4+ minor, 5-10 points

You open 2heart, showing a hand of five hearts and a four card or longer minor, in the range of five to ten points. Hands within this specification come up very regularly - it's much more interesting than passing all the time. Anyway West overcalls 2spade, and partner raises to 4heart to complete the bidding.

How do you play on spadeK lead?
