Solution to Previous Contract Prablam
Yes, to-day's hand was rather tricky, but I hope you did not lose too much sleep over it... The one thing that I want my readers to remember always is that contrnet is still just a game.
To tho young folks, I will say don't let it interfere with business. And to the older folks-don't let it be a medium of quarrels. Rather -to everyonelet it be the means of many hours of enjoyable pastime.

Onallento-All val,
did you play a small spade from, dummy? If so, I am afraid that you'd be in trouble. You must make at least three space tricks to get your contract, and you have only one re-entry in dummy, so the thing, you must do la to go right up with the ace in dummy, even though it does catch your singleton king.
You should return your fuck of spades immediately and discard a club. West should refuse to win the first spade, and then, when North continues with the ten of spades. Enst echoes in hearts and West wins with the queen.
He leads the ten of hearia.
De- clarer plays low from dummy and
Nagasaki Hong Kong East allows the trick to ride. South wins the trick with the queen.
