The Bidding. The contract bidding was South one club, West passed, North one Apade. This is the One over One and requires partner to keep the bidding open, East passed and South bid two no trump, trying to show partner an exceptionally strong hand

which had better possibilities for game at no trump than at spades. North jumped the bid to four for a slam. South, having more than he originally advertlaed, bld six no trump.

The Play

West opened his fourth best dia- mond-the six apot, dummy cover ed with the nine which forced the jack from the East hand, South winning with the king. Declarer returned the four of diamonds, finessing the 10 spot, which held the trick. The club suit is then started by leading the slx from dummy, declarer winning with the ace. A small club is returned and West discards the five of hearts, dummy winning the trick with the of of clubs. The seven queen clubs is returned from dummy and when Enat plays the nine, declarer covers with the 10. West discard- ing the seven of diamonds.

Now the king of clubs is led by declarer forcing West to discard the nine of hearts. A heart is discarded from dummy, East followe with the jack of clubs. The declarer plays a small spade, winning in the dummy. with the ace and leads the deuce of spades from dummy. East follows with the jack, declarer winning with the queen.

This gives the declarer a very good count of the West hand.. East is undoubtedly out of spades. West is known to hold two more diamonds and two spades. This leaves him with one heart. De- clarer then applies the squeeze by lending the five of clubs. West discards the jack of hearts, dummy the queen of hearts and East the four. Now the squeeze card-the ace of hearts. If West discards a diamond, declarer will discard a spade from dummy. while if a spade is discarded by West, diamond will be discarded dummy.

the from

By carefully playing his cards and applying the squeeze play, the declarer has made seven no trump although he only bid six no tramp. As neither side were vulnerable, lie scores 600 for the small slam bid and made 210 for six no trump bid and made 60 for the extra trick.
