spouse is made regardless Of the
length of the ace suit; 1t merely
shows the ace of hearts and denies

Now South would like to find out
whether North holds the king OF
spades or the ace Of diamonds, hence
his bid of two spades. If North
held the ace of diamonds, he would
respond three diamonds; but not
holding that ace, he shows his king
of spades by bidding three spades.
South now knows that he is OF the
ace of diamonds and closes the bid
