DNE, he chose to operate I guess, maybe he was trying to walk it, who knows, I would always pass the X.

A grudge on us. Anyway it doesn't matter if masse24 or gwnn is right on this one, perhaps neither or both of us are, but we just pass for now and punch him in the face talk about partnership philosophy when they make +1.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

This seems like normal bidding by the little old ladies at the local club. She has a lot of hearts headed by the AKQ, 2 Kings, and a Queen or two. And yes, because of bad defense 5♦ will make 6.

Heck, Wednesday there was a similar situation. RHO opens 15-17 1NT in first seat, and the auction proceeded as follows:
(1NT) - P - (2♠) - X
(3♣) - P - (P) - 3♠
(4♣) - P - (P) - 4♠ - All Pass

Partner made 6 as they never cashed a diamond.
My hand was ♠AT ♥Txxx ♦xxxx ♣xxx
Her hand was ♠QJ8xxxx ♥AKx ♦x ♣AK

North has a void and forgot he was on lead?

Played backstage at a Spinal Tap concert, North was the drummer and blew up shortly afterwards.

North has 1. rest of the ♦ and a trump trick, 2. stopper in ♠ preferably 2 of them 3. high honour in ♥ 4. singleton or void in ♣ and prd who made T/O dbl in red vs. white.
Why he bids like that, dont know, maybe his cards improve during the bidding.
I would pass happily.

Pard thought his "two over one" was game forcing.
