At the table there are probably enough clues to enable you to guess right if possible, so the hearts are a 75% chance. Thus, this line works in slightly more cases than the other line. However, the other line is probably best anyway. Even though it is very slightly mathematically inferior, because you do not need to guess it is practically better.
