Doesn't matter - I'll bid 4♥ either way. I think its reasonable to play pard to cover 2 of my 4 losers. Furthermore, they probably have a spade fit lurking, and I'd like to shut it out.

4H
Versus passing we gain if we make 4H, and mostly when we go off as well.
I think this will outweigh the opponents making game occasionally.

4♥X went 1 down (opener high-card doubled), but 1♦ would have made more overtricks and 4♠ was cold for them. Well done everyone (I bid 4♥ at the table without much conviction).

4H, then sick feeling when one opponent X to find 4S making, when pass won.
