"Lebensohl" Suggests Slam

1 3+ clubs, 8 to 11
2 Game Forcing 5+ hearts
3 Keycard Ask in Hearts, planning to ask for the

Q
4 None of

A
5 Oops...I can't ask for the

Q with 5

because that's 'to play'...might as well wing it
6 'Correct' to hearts?

Play was routine with West cashing a top spade and continuing a diamond won with dummy's

A.
Dummy's hope rose with South's cashing of the

Q and sunk some when West showed out on dummy's

K winning.
One more round of trump concluded the defence.

Better scoring would have been 6. Was it South's place to set the final contract with the QJ only holding 2 of the suit with 3 suggested by the raise to 4?
