Higgins, one of the few players In the event who has a national ranking, opened as hedre from the West hond. This was the first step in a very pretty defence.
Declarer won the opening lead in dummy and led the king of spades. East discarded a heart and West held off. When the queen of spades was led from dummy, East discarded the ten of hearts, completing his story about that suit, West properly | decided to hold 'off once more.
роог
This defence ruined South. Io did his best by cash- ing the ace of diamonds and ruffing a diamond in order to lend the jack of spades to force out West's ace. Higgins then re- turned his remaining heart, put- ting declarer in the dummy before he had drawn the, last trump.
South couldn't get any dis- cards on the hearts, since West would ruff; and if he got out of dummy to draw the last trump, he could never return to get the discards later on.
