With a conservative 1 or a gung-ho 3NT as possible alternatives, at the table South tried 3. This was an interesting choice, for it could not possibly show a traditional pre-empt. Whether this constructive shot was misinterpreted by North we'll never know, but an apprehensive South was probably quite pleased when she saw dummy, for game would not have been a good idea.

So imagine you are South. West starts off with ace, king and a third heart to his partner's queen. Having avoided game you probably have a good score already - how might you improve it further?
