In the vast majority of times one should expect a slam in one of the
minor suits, I pull the double by bidding 4N showing a two suited
hand, hopefully we can find a fit, but if partner bids 5C or 5D I am
going to pass, partner's double is penalty oriented and I will take it
as a kind of warning, something like ' my hand is not control rich'.
