South is a bit timid with the K of C, still Nth does not have to have the S ace. You are off 2Ds, S need to break 3-3 and you have at least one heart loser. This is a game I do not want to be in. If you think only one, what about if rho gets in with a D and pushes a H through?)

No, game is poor, but in real life I think it's hard to stop short.

Not a good game at all

Given that W doubled, I don't like my ♥K as South and think that 2♥ was an adequate bid. If W hadn't doubled, then I think I might have bid more strongly, but even then I think it is borderline for N to go 4♠ lacking 3 card support.
