LUCKY ALthough WELL PLAYED When overcalling with a very weak hand, it is well to bear in mind that

your overcall may eventually give the opponents a clew as to how to make a slam. However, in to-day's hand West was really unlucky since, when he overcalled, he had no reason to expect that a Slam could be made against him.

West was in the lead with nothing but diamonds and clubs in his hand, and whatever he led did him no good. Declarer trumped in dummy and dis- carded his own losing heart, thereby making a really lucky Slam.
