CONTRACT CINEMA SCREENINGS. CONSIGNEES NOTICE.|P & O BRITISH-INDIA APCAR AND

BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney As I have previously explained to you, in the one over one system, a third hand bid may be made at times with a vory weak hand, and of course it is the ideal spot for a psychic bid.

However, when playing the one over one system with its strong no trump bid, a no trump is never used as a psychic bid, especially third hand. In other words, it is the one third hand bid which you can tell partner that you have a good hand,

The following hand is unusually interesting as it caused considera- ble discussion in a recent tourna ment.

South and West passed. North opened with one no trump.

It is not a particularly favourable no trump hand, the bid may be used to indicate to partner strong hand.
