North (Overcaller) should DBL
first. Advancer should identify the DBL as Takeout which is forcing. That
means, assuming East subsequently passes, Advancer must bid (even with no
points at all). North should then ignore whatever suit Advancer bids (I
assume it will be diamonds) & bid their own heart suit next. Making a
Takeout DBL, then ignoring Advancer's suit to bid a suit of your own (even
though you know Advancer might not have any points at all) shows a big hand (at
least 19 HCPs) & a solid suit. If North bids 3H, South should take them to
game. If I were North, however, my second bid with that hand would be 4H. With
even the tiniest bit of help from Advancer (the heart Queen for example) that
hand should deserve 10 tricks in hearts.
