South knew that this bid might show only two aces, plus the king of bid suit; but when South look ed at his hand. he saw that he held the kings of all three suits, spades, diamonds and clubs, which had been bid.
 Therefore North could not have the king of a bid suit for this four no trump bid, and must have three aces. Realizing this South bid five no trump, knowing that his response could not be miSread.
 North, having three aces, of course knew that South could not hold two aces. Therefore South must have the kings of all the bid suits. These cards would fit every hole in North's hand. North there fore bid seven spades.
 The bid was made with ease, despite South's singleton trump, North drew trumps, then ran the five-card diamond suit and threw away his two small hearts.

The four no trump bid may show only two aces, plus the king of a suit bid by either partner; but it may also show three aces. The re- Sponse of five no trump, when partner has bid four no trump, or dinarily shows two aces; but today's hand illustrates another use of this response.
 After South's opening bid and later rebid of two clubs, North de- termined to try for slam. His spade suit satisfied him as the trump suit, so without further in- vestigation he jumped into the con- ventional slA mtry of four no trump.
