CONTRACT BRIDGE
By W. E. McKenney
I wonder why some players con- tinually allow high card tricks to wreck them.
Den certain people four or five qulek tricks and they immediately want to open with a forcing bid. Regardless of the responses given by partner, they are sure to reach a slam.
The next time you are dealt number of high card tricks, pro- ceed cautiously. Remember that every high card that you have in your hand is one less that your partner holds. You may not even be able to get into his hand to take a necessary finesse, or to es inblish your long suit.
As a matter of fact, hauds con- talning six and seven high card tricks, without a long suit, will seldom produce a slum, for the reason that there аге по high cards left to enter partner's hand with.
Take for example the following hand. A gront many players would pick it up, count six and

Jone-half quick tricks and think, "Hurray, I have an opening two bid."
consider
Well, I wouldn't even opening the hand with a forcing suit bid of two. Let's count up the tricks that you are apt to win two spades, three hearts at the best, a diamond and two clubs if you are lucky-eight in all.
Therefore you must find a trick
in partner's hand in order to go game at no trump. If you insist on opening with a forcing bid, at lenst don't bid any more than two no trump.
That is the weakest original two bid made in the constructive one over one system. It doesn't absolutely guarantee game in your own hand but it does state that your hands is no big that you think it impossible not to go game.
If you were to open this hand with two no trump in the South, North will bid three no trump. If he does not bid more than this, you certainly must pass on the next round.
By taking three finesses and finding the queen of hearts right, six no you are able to produce trump. West would open a spade which you would win with the king, You have only one entry card in, the dummy-the king of dia- monds. Your best bet at this point is to try to create another entry. Therefore you should lead a small heart to dummy's jack. If West refuses to win, the trick will be won in dummy with the jack.
The jack of clubs will be led.| from dummy and if Eust refuses to cover the ten should be played. Another chub should be led and the queen finessed. Then n dia- mond should be led to dummy's king. The juck of diamonds should now be finessed and all that you need do is to grant your opponents a heart trick.
Just because six odd was made on this hand, don't try to find some reason why it should be bid. The hand is not even close to a Found slam bid, as neither side la sult with which to work.
in other words, slams can best be made when you have a long suit with which to work. Handa containing only four card suits
are often dificult to make game. with, even though they have an abundance of high card tricks.
