NOTES
No Cone can be blamed for thinking he has a sure trick when holding four of the opponents' trump suit headed by the J-10-9. There is about one case, or less. in a thousand in which this parti cular combination will fail to de- velop a winking trick. But Mr.) Geoffrey Matt-Smith, prominent New York champion player and writer on Bridge, successfully executed one of the exceptions re- cently..
+
His method was to throw the ad- versaries into the lead twice,, and force them to establish a final tenace position for him in the trump suit. The interesting con aideration here is that he accom- plished his purpose of lead-throw. ing with cards he would have been forced to lose in any event. He simply stripped the hand of all the winning cards he had, and as he led out his losers he found the trumps being led to him. It re- fquired a great deal of foresight on his part, and accurate placing of high cards.
