In Response To: bridge probability question (OT) (Chuck Bower)

I have no idea what Alder is talking about. The only thought I have is whether East passed as the opening bidder. If so, that would tend to mark the Ace with West since East has already shown up with the AK of hearts. With the Ace of diamonds as well, she would likely have opened. Based on Alder's wording, that probably is not the point of his statement, but it seems like the only possibly useful inference that could be drawn by declarer.
