East doubled, South passed, and West responded with one spade. Of course North would have auffered a heavy, penalty had the double been passed, but he was not vulnerable and the ultimate reault was much more profliable for East and West.
East bid two clubs, but West- now responded with four clubs. This is a highly constructive bid from which Eant could draw wealth of inferences.
A
It showed at least four clubs in the West hand and considerable side strength. West apparently had sufficient strength to have bid two apados over the double and his reason for not doing so must; have been a spade suit of only four cards.
The atrength shown by the jump in clubs could only consist: of the ace and king of spades or the ace and a queen of spades plus the king of diamonds.
Furthermore, West must be short in hearts because nearly all of the hearts are accounted for by previous bidding and East's own holding Having thus formed a complete picture of partner's hand. East was fully justified in bidding six clubs. which become the final contract.
·
The Ploy.
South's lead is immaterial, bu he elected to open a trump rather than to lead through his partner's Ens: obviously weak heart suit. won with the ace and dropped the remaining trumps by leading the king.
Hle next lead was the nine of rpades to dummy's king, and he followed with the ace of spades]
The king of hearts is practically marked with North by his open- ing bid and a successful finessa will give an extra trick.
When the
queen held, he led the ace of hearta followed by a small one which he ruled in dummy, returning to his own hand with the ace of diamonds.
He ruffed another heart and when North's king dropped, de- clarer's remaining heart was es tablished for the thirteenth trick,
This band flustrates how good tournament playera manipulate the play to realiza every possible trick, yet they do so in auch a way as to run as little risk as possible.
In this case East assured him- self that the finesse would in no way jeopardize his small alam contract, and that while he might gain nothing by a play, it could not possibly result in a loss.
