"Was there any way for do- clarer to know what was going on?"

As the hand was played, de- clarer could not be sure of what was going on. West deserves credit for a very fine defence.

However, declarer could have given himself

a better chanco for his contract if he had refus- -ed one of the early spade tricks. This would have made it necos- sary for East to find one ad- ditional discard.

East could not afford to dis- card a diamond or a heart. I ho discarded enough clubs, South would probably ho able to figure out the situation' in that suit.

For example, if South ducks one round of spades, East must discard three clubs on spades alone. He must also follow suit twice when, declarer plays clubs. Since this accounts for all of tils five clubs, the declarer, should have no trouble in reading the alluation.
