two heart tricks will have made up the quota. But South. must be careful lest, while he is relinquish- ing these two tricks, the opponents establish many spade tricks and defeat his contract.
South assumes that most of the spades are held by West, who open fed the suit, and he is anxious that Esat, if he obtains the lead by means of one of the outstanding Aces, shall be unable to continue spades and establish West's long suit before the second Ace is gone. The only hope for South lies in the chance that East originally held only two: spades, so that after they have been led twice he will be un-) able to play the suit again. Bouth therefore, allows the Queen to win the first trick against him. West continues the suit, and South's King wins, whereupon South pro- ceeds to play his longest suit, clubs East wins the Ace but is unable to lead ppades again, wo when West later obtains the lead by means of the heart Ace, his suit not as yet Established and nothing can pre- vent South from winning at least the nine tricks he needed
