                                   3♥: fit
                                   3♠ : sing or void in ♠




     I bid 4♥ and after my partner's hesitation AP. Then I regret for this hand bidding 4♥ over 3♠ because,
at first sight  my ♠ values not good for sing ♠ however, other values are very good so I ve forgot to bid 3NT
which will suit best for this hand.

With a little careful play 6♥ is made.We are lucky that opponents score was 6♥-1.
