Tuff hand.
Although North needs to know holding AKQJ
♠ it is very unlikely that pd is accepting anything, I still can't blame North since South would bid exactly as he did
- with ♥A instead of ♦A.
- With ♥A instead of ♣A
- With ♦AKJ +♥A and Kxx or even Jxx(x) ♣.
I do not blame anybody but if someone is bidding the slam, that will be South, Look at South hand, at first glance it is miserable, some may not even overcall with this suit. But when pd acknowledges South the fit and 1st round
♥ control, slam is playable even vs as low as Axxx
♠ or Kxxxx
♠. Of course slam is hopeless vs QJxx AK KQJx Qxx.
So I wouldn't really blame anyone. It's just bridge and preempts.
