With two suits, be more optimistic

Don Marquis, a dramatist, humorist, journalist and poet who died in 1937, said, "I never think at all when I write. Nobody can do two things at the same time and do them both well."

That is interesting - but how did he decide what words to put onto the paper?

At the bridge table, having two long suits is usually better than one. If you hit a fit with partner, you will win more tricks than the combined point-count would normally suggest - and doubly so if you have a double fit.
