Overbid Debate in Bridge Hands From Truscott Book
North faces a recurring problem from Oswald Jacoby and Alan Truscott on overcalling with a heart lead threat. The hand describes South not vulnerable four hearts, partner four spades, West five hearts, and the question of how to discourage a heart lead while pursuing seven spades. Jacoby once jumped to seven spades in a rubber game to tempt West to read the situation, risking the grand slam in 2250 point bonuses.
