South did and very quickly started regretting it. North's leap to 3heart was also on the optimistic side of conservatism, and South could hardly pass quickly enough.

The cards and/or the defence will have to be kind for this contract to come home but at least the lead is friendly - a diamond runs round to East's ten and your jack.
