OUR
UR discussion of penalty dou- bles continues today wiı a very delicate point. When both sides bid energetically it is often necessary to double the opponents in order to shut your partner up. Sometimes such doubles go sour, but in the long run they pay high dividends.
In today's hand North's original double is, of course, a takeout dou- bie.
Mind you, it's a very poor takeout double because North
practically no support for any sult that his partner can name. Never- theless, many fine players would make this miserable double in the hope of competing with the oppa- nents. I would probably do so mg- self in spite of the fact that I cheer
double fully admit that the mtsarable.
*LE
Once North shows the sign of life, South can well afford to give the erremy a run for their money. As three spades, South is out on a limb, but the enemy fall to realise I. Hence they
push 01 to four
diamonds.
Right then and there North must double. Be cannot be sure of beat- ing fuur diamonds, but he should have a fair play fo 11. and he knows that his hand is valuable only for defence.
Noth doubles good defence defeats the contrast. South opens the singleton club, and North over- takes and continues clubs. North wins three clubs and then the fourth club assures the defenders a trump tick
When this hand was actually play- ed, North was to tirnid to double four diamonds. His partner never dreaned that the North hand was worthless in both hearts and ipades. He went on to four spades and went for an 800-point ride.
West led the king of hearts and then shifted to a low diamond. East took the queen of damons Gh returned a heart, whereupon West took two more heart tricks. Another diamond and aventually the ace of trumpa gave the defenders six tricks. The double of four diamonde pro- duces a plus of 200 rather than a minus of 800. The tutal gain is 1,000 points. You can afford to give the opponents a few boints occasionally a contract that they by doubling can make it you sometimes gain such large amounts.
