The Bidding
therefore it is best to start South's hand at contract with a bid of one spade, West, would overcall with two hearts, North should bid three information; spades. With this South.can jump to five spades and North would go to six.
The Play
West has a choice of two open- ings-trump or the king of hearts. Against a slam declaration most players will open the singleton trump which South, the declarer, would win with the ace. Declarer would return the king of trump, West would play the seven of hearts and East would follow with his last trump-tle eight spot.
The declarer sees that he has one losing heart and one losing club trick. West's overcall of two hearts practically places the king and queen of hearts and the king of clubs in his hand. If this is true, the declarer can make his small slam by stripping both his hand and the dummy's' of diamonds, therefore three rounds of diamonds are taken.
The declarer then leads the eight; of hearts from dummy, winning in his own hand with the nee. The six of hearts is returned by the de- claror and West is forced to win with the queen, Regardless of what West leads, he cannot stop the declarer from making a small alum. If he returns a heart or a diamond, the declarer will trump in the
dummy and discard a club from his own hand. If West returns a small club, the declarer will allow it to ride to his queen as it is his only possible chance of successful- ly making six odą,
The bidding and the opening lend placed the missing high cards for the declarer.
