All pass

West's 1S is a little offbeat with only four cards, but some expert pairs do bid such good suits.
A warning sign though is that West has 4 cards in bid red suits, so the hand may not play very well.
At one table North raised 1H to 2H, which again is a little offbeat but with good ruffing values some experts pairs would do this.
At one table North opened 1 NT, and South raised to 3 NT. 1 NT should be reserved for balanced hands. South's hand would be could to use Stayman if North opened 1 NT.
