Trump was fallowed Ehninger decided that the beat played and Ehninger chance to defeat the contract was through his plan of attack, which Alexandria to try to find his partner with defeated the contract. the queen of diamonds, so he de- liberately gave. up the king of diamonds and led it. He hoped thereby to create an entry in his partner's hand, with the queen of diamonds.
On the king North played the five. If you were the East player would you win this trick with the ace? If you do, you will be giving up the hand, because South will win the first trump trick with the small diamond. ace and lead a North will win with the queen and return the 13th heart, which will allow-Ehninger..to make. his..ten. of spades.
The interesting part of this hand comes when East refuses to win the king of diamonds trick. Suppose South continues with a small diamond and the ten is played from dummy. North will have to be careful not to cover with the queen, as East will win the trick with the ace and lead the king of trump.
If South wins the trick with the uce and leads another diamond, declarer will discord his losing club. While, South leads an- other spade, the nine spot will hold in dummy and the losing club will still be discarded on the jack} of diamonds.
Today's Contract Problem
South, is playing the con- truct at three no trump, West opens the five of clubs. How should declarer play the hand, and what is the most Impor- tant card to him?
