I don't know what LHO was thinking of, but Truscott's point was there's no way Reese would have doubled this unless he knew pard had 2 aces.

The alegation is that they were conveying the number of hearts, not the number of ACEs. The speculation aobut leaving the double in here with ACES is non-sense. The reason the doulbe was left in is that partner with only 3 hearts (what was suppose to be known), must be realatively balanced and thus have values. IT doensn't take only aces to defeat contracts.

Any allegation suggestion that he knew the number of ACES is counter to the theory of the case, and is people jumping on the bandwagon.

I don't really understand your point. WHat I can say is I did read Truscott's allegation, and there his claim was that double must have been based on the nr. of aces pard had.

I don't know the truth of the matter but this newspaper scoop seems to resemble revelations from a close friend of Princess Di or vibrations from a psychic in touch with Marilyn Monroe. Whatever opinion I may have or may form about Reese and Shapiro, it will not be based on this "new and shocking revelation".
