Good Player Never Forces Declarer

SOME players react to a long

Now he made the fatal mistake of laying down the ace of trumps. The rest was just hopeless. East was bound to get his ace of clubs and two trumps.

There was no excuse for laying down, the age of 1rumps. West was marked with only a singleton trump since he had run out of ans spade doubled.

Correct play is to ruff, the queen of hearts and lead a club'to' dummy's queen. East's best play is to win Dummy wins, and return a club. and declater cashes a heart and rus a heart or a .diamond. Now he has the trumpa, and so does East. A low trump gives one trick to East, but then South makes the rest.

The moral is easy to see: Don't insist on playing the hand a de- clarer unless you can get all the tricks there are. If you're that good in the play, why bother to bid badly? A good partner fracs. 4 lot better than a good individualist.
