The player-holding-honours.could bid his hand accordingly, hut you As the opponent have no definite In tourna way to combat honours, ment bridge, if a man bids four spades, not vulnerable, you can ice that you cannot take a sacrifice against that, because you will be minus 450 points and the declarer, If he makes his contract, will make only 120 points. But if he has hon- ours, he is going to be plus 520. Therefore, if a player happens to overbid and goes down 150 or 500 points against a pair holding hon- our, his team will receive a very fine score in duplicate. Not be cause they used good judgment, but OJFJESSEEEEEESSSSSSNIN because they were lucky enough to find an opponent with honours.
.Here's a hand that gave a pair lop score in a recent duplicate tournament, because une player. with his 100 honours, insisted on playing it at no trump Truc enough, he found a nice end play to make his contract. The rest of the tables played the hand at six diamonds, which was a spread.
The Bidding "East's cue bid of spades and clubs is made only with the idea of gulting to seven. West makes a nice safe bid when he refuses to rebid hearts, which would have shown a 6-5.distribution, but he was afraid when rebidding hearts) thut his partner might go to seven, which ho didn't think was possiblo to make.
The Play
In response to his partner's club bid, South opened the nine of clubs, North played the jack, which now marked him with the king and queen, which you will see is very important Inter in the hand. Enst won the trick with the ace and then played a small spade, winning in dummy with the king.
