Watch Your Hand; It'll Pay Dividends
By OSWALD JACOBY
WHEN
When you're defending to play in such a way that your
partner knows what you have and therefore knows how to put up the best defence. It's possible, however, to overdo this defen- sive signalling, as today's hand shows
North's cue-bid of three spaden was forcing to grono and promised support for the three un-bid suits North didn't really have full values for this bid, but he wasn't far out DC line, When South got to five "diamonds, West came to life with a
quick disciplinary double.
West opened the three of spadce, and duminy ruffed with the nine of diamonds. East dropped the ace of spades on this trick, partly to show complete control of the, suit and partly to encourage spads con- finuation.
This play was highly informa- live to Weal, but it was a com. plete giveaway to South as well. South happened to be Harry Fishy- bein, a nationally known expert who seldom needs more than one hint to help him play a doubtful hand,
Fishbein realised that East's play definitely located the ace-king- queen of spades. What could West have for his double of five dia.
