When doubler's partner expects to defeat the doubled contract by an appreciable amount, he should pasa for penalty in preference to taking-out. After partner has {doubled a no-trump, especially if vulnerable, a penalty pass is justl- {fed with as few aż 2 honour tricks.

After partner has doubledan Jopening suit bid of one, a penalty pass should be emphatically avoided. The sharp distinction between the penalty pass of no-trump and suft bids is explained by the fact that in suit bids opponent, are us- Jually able to make small trumus by ruffing adverse, honours, but at jno-trump it is difficult to establish any low card tricks if only min- jimum bonour strength is held.
