Carnival by Oswald and James Jacoby
In a bridge column West opened the king of diamonds then shifted to the ten of hearts. South misplayed, losing a diamond a spade and two trumps for 800 points. North defends that he doubled two diamonds to set the contract and that three no trump could make with proper play, while casting blame on South for a risky double.

North T4L 63 bidding alters contract aims
The passage notes North T4L 63 amends promising aces or kings, implying the opposite. North may hold some cards but Worth signals to his partner that North prioritizes penalty points over attempting game or slam. If South reasoned, North's bid aimed to deter a slam, not encourage one.
