* Dubious with such a poor suit.** Negative (ie, take-out) promising Hearts. The other option is to pass and convert partner’s expected reopening double (that’s probably what I’d have done).*** Splinter bid, showing Diamond shortage, inferentially agreeing Hearts.§ Signing off.§§ Gives up on the grand slam.
