| 1♥ | 1♠ | End |
Contract:
1♠ by North
East passes 1♠ because he is weak. West knows that East either is too weak to bid over 1♠ or has a penalty double of 1♠. Looking at his own spade holding it is obvious to West that East cannot have a penalty double of 1♠. West does best to pass. If he wrongly doubles it is for takeout and East will bid 2♦, not a happy contract.
