By OSWALD JACOBY

ERHAPS South should

PER

have let his partner

play the hand at three no- trump. South could furnish nine fast tricks, provided that his partner could stop the black cuits. I would surely take this risk with a reasonably reliable partner, but I would take a chance on five diamonds if my part- ner were unreliable.

West opened the ten of hearts, and South won with the ace. South then drew one round of trumps and wondered what to do about trying for an eleventh trick, He could be sure of ten tricks in the red suits, but he needed one of the black kings to make his game.

If you were playing this hand and couldn't see the East-West cards, how could you go about trying for a black king? Would
