Would you say that his ne
currect play was theoretically even though a pruefical failure?"
On the basis of the evidence, I cast one vole against South. It seems excessively pessimistic to assume that West must have bo honours for his penalty double.
Even if West has both trump the line of play that bonours, South adopted would work only if West also had at least three clubs. This is possible, but il re- ducex the likelihood of th success of an already unlikely line of play,
The clinching consideration is Uint West wouldn't dream of opening a rather adventurous diamond if he had two sure He would nake trump tricks, his normal spade opening lead, since he would not be seeking a diamond ruff. The actual dia- mond opening lead should have indicated to South that West felt very doubtful about his penalty double of five hearts.
