Board 32 commentary:
Many Norths will open at favorable vulnerability, even in second 
seat. When you have a good suit with an easy rebid, try to make the 
opponents’ life as hard as you can. East will overcall in spades, and 
when South doubles, West can raise to 2♠. Now what? North might 
like to compete in clubs, but that would certainly be going to the well 
once too often. However, if he passes, South should double again, and 
eventually N/S figure to end in 3♦. With a bunch of finesses to take, 
you’d happily settle for +110 – but with the sight of all 52 cards you 
could actually take 11 tricks!
