Wrong Guess Will Cause Headaches
By OSWALD JACOBY
HOW
TOW do you know whether your partner is leading a singleton or a doubleton? You can't always tell, and sometimes it is fatal to guess wrong.
In today's hand, played ro cently in Scotland, none of the players saw a way to avoid a guess. Maybe you can do better.
West opened the three of hearts, and Est won with the nee. After just a little thought East correctly came to the ean- clusion that his partner needed the pee of diamonds to defent the contract, Hence East re- turned his singleton diamond.
It was now up to West to guess whether this Was A singleton or doubleton diamond. If it was a singleton, West should take the gee of diamonds at once and return the sult. If East had two diamonds, how- ever, West should duck this trick; and East would take the Hirst trump with the ace, return remaining diamond, then get a ruff.

Perhaps you ask how could tell that his partner had the nee of trumps? West couldn't be sure, but he did know that two red aces and one ruff would not defeat the contract, So West bad to hope that his partner had the nee of trumps since it was just about the only other trick that East could have.
This didn't help West decide how many diamonds his partner

How should the defenders avoid a bad guess in this kind Remember. of of situation? course, that West cannot see hly partner's hand.
East should not lead the nine of diamonds at the second trick. He should first cash the ace of spades and then lead his single- ton diamond.
With the ace of spades out of the way West knows that he cannot afford to duck the first round of diamonds and walt for his partner to lead the suit again. Hence West is logically compelled to win the first dia- mond trick and return the suit. The contract is therefore de- fented without the need for any guesswork.
