Now let us consider the last cln- ment-the squeeze lead-in the Tapel formula,
After you have accurately de veloped the rst four elements in the Tapet formula and you have placed your opponent in a squeeze position, you must be able to make a lead that will squeeze him. This is always the lead of a suit of which the opponent to be squeezed is void, thereby forcing him to discard.
Since your opponent's hand con- tains only control cards over your two threats, he is compelled to dis curd one of these controls, auto- matically transforming one of your threat cards into a winner. This is exnetly what happens in every BIJUGEZE,
In the example above, South leads the spade seven at the th trick. Since West holds no spades, he is compelled to discard either the ciul jack or the diamond jack chooses to drop, he will automatig- No matter which of these he ally establish an extra winner for the declarer,
When the squeeze is properly executed, the opponent is helpless. He cannot prevent creation of an extra trick for the declarer.
The squeeze lend need not be a trump, although in most squeezes the last trump generally is the
