After Mr. Goren's raise to five clubs Mr. Blanchard was convinced he could make a slam, and the problem then was in which suit to play the hand. He was sure Mr. Goren did not hold the ace of diamonds, else he would have cue-bid in that suit. Hence the slam would depend upon whether or not he could discard one or two losing hearts from Mr. Goren’s hand on one of his long suits. Mr. Blanchard con- tracted for six clubs, feeling certain that Mr. Goren would take him to six spades if he thought the slam was preferable in that suit.
