Bidding Example
As North what do you bid next?

You should not bid 3NT. Bid 3H to show 3 card support. As South has only 4 hearts, he shows 3 spades by bidding 3S and North bids 4S.

See below for a discussion of declarer play.

Play Example

You lead a heart against 7S. Declarer wins and plays QS. Do you cover? If not declarer leads JS. How do you play?

If partner has a potential trick, Declarer may need a finesse, and possibly twice. If you cover any of declarer's big trumps, he has a second entry to the spade 9. Continue to duck until declarer plays the 6, and he has only 1 entry to table, and partner makes his KD for one down.
