ever, a simple strategic move made this player thankful thatoulala the rules did not allow him toongkong ask for a new deal.
The Bidding
South opened the contract with one heart and, West was con- fronted with a problem. A double looked like the safest move. North might be justified in jump- ing to three hearts in an en- deavour to shut Enst out of the bidding. But when North passed,¦ East probably should have res- ponded with a bid of two clubs. But an a double of one major usually indicates strength in the other, he elected to make the lowest bid possible—one spade.
West thought when South bid two hearts that he was, more r less on a psychic, but oven if he had a true bld. East would be able to finesse through the South hand, and 80 he immediately jumped the contract to six spades.
The Play

by making the strategic play of South's opening lead against trumping dummy's ace and king of the six spade contract was the hearts, East was able to make his queen of hearts. The king was contract. played from dummy.
Now what would you do If you held the Enst hand? Be carefull Would you discard one of your diamonds? That would cost you your contract.
Dummy's king of hearts must be trumped, to be able to take the spade finesse.
East trumped with the deuce of spades and then led a small apado and finessed the jackin dummy. North showed out.
The ace of hearts was played and trumped by the declarer with the seven of spades. This allowed East to take the second finesse in: spades. Now the ace of spades| picked up South's king,
All the declarer had to lose now was the king of diamonds. So,
Today's Contract Problem
South is playing the con- tract at Bic hearts. West opens the queen of clubs. What strategic play en-South make that will give him h contract?
