at the
South's take-out double was! not so strong that, on a nega- tive response from his partner.
he could see any hope for game. As a matter of fact, he was afraid of 器 severe penalty
should the contract go, any higher, inasmuch as he DOW feared that North's hand con- sisted largely of spade stoppers. With two and a half honour tricks and even distribution North made a miserable bid when he responded only one no. trump to the take-out double. Since the double itself had advertised about three and a half honour tricks he could, of course, know that the North- South combined hands had a total of approximately six] bonout tricks which, by the Culbertson "rule of eight," left) the opponents with a maximum of about two and a half, Cer- tainly it should have required no great vision on his part to see that a game either in no trump or in South's best suit was a ten to one chance. His one no trump response could i have been based on nothing more than two stoppers in the doubled suit, spades. How he could expect his partner to Irealise that it actually was based on a generally good hand was a mystery that only he could solve.
On a spade opening by East) ten tricks were an absolute lay- down and, as a matter of fact, reasonably good play would eleven. have brought home After winning the lead- South could run four diamonds and four clubs, leaving only four cards in each. hand. East would have to guard the heart king and would, therefore, be forced to reduce to two spades. whereupon a spade throw-in play would compel a lead away from his heart king up to de- clarer's tenace.
