Here is another interesting hand in which it looks almost im- possible to pick up the king of clubs, which is trump. But leave it to the expert to figure out the unusual play.

East passed and South trump. bid two clubs. North went to three no trump but South, feeling quite confident that there was no game in no trump due to the distribu- tion of his hand, bid five clubs. West passed. North passed und Enat did not double, not wishing to give information regarding his club holding.
The Piny.
West has a choice of three suits to open. The expert does not like to lend away from a king, there- fore the heart suit was selected and the three spot led. South, the declarer, won the trick withi the king and immediately led the queen of spades which East won with the new and returned the jack of hea vis, dummy winning with the act. The nine of clubs was led front dummy and the de- clurer took the finesse, playing the douce from his own hand. It held the trick and the dummy con- tinued with the eight of clubs, declarer playing the seven, West showing out, discarding the eight of spades. The deuce of spades is led from dummy and trumped by the declarer with the ten of clubs. Declarer then leads small diamond to dummy's queen and returns the five of spades the form dummy, trumping with jack of clubs. Declarer then leads the seven of diamonds, winning in the dummy with the acc.
play:
Now for the beautiful the dummy lends the three of dia- monds. If East trumps with the six of clubs, the declarer will play the eight of diamonds, and regardless of what East leads, the declarer Can
the trump with queen of clubs, lead an ace and pick up East's king and then cash hia good king of diamonds. The best play for East to make ів to discard the eight of bearla on the three of diamonds. The declarer will then win the trick with the king of diamonds and will return the eight of diamonds which West will win with the juck, East discarding the jack of spades. All West can do is to lead his heart which Bust is forced to trump. The declarer will over- trump and pick up East's king with
hia aco.
It looks rather impossible to pick up the king in the East hand, but the declarer, by clever play of the hand, has picked up the king and made his contruct of five
clubs.
