Many players have asked me, "What do you do, with these large hands that do not have the ten probable tricks sufficient to make an original forcing two bid, but which contain a great number of quick tricks?"--such as, to-day's hand,

The Bidding

The South hand contains five quick tricks, but is n long way from being a two bid under the!

one over one system,

It does not qualify as an original | two no trump forcing bid, as it doce not have Ave-card suit, and of course it does not come in the three no trump class. as it cannot guarantee game without any assistance from partner.

However, in the one over one: system, we do have a bid that shows a much stronger hand than an original sult bid of one, and that is a bid of one no trump. This bid can be made with a bld- dable four-card suit-or even, at times, with a five-card suit.

To-day's hand has a strong four- card major, but the hand should be opened with one no trump to inform partner that you hoge a fine hand-one in which perhaps every suit is stopped and in addi- tion, that your hand contains ton- ace 'positions.

no

If South opens with one trump, North will bid two no trump, and South will, then carry the contract to three no trump.

The Play

It happens that it is an unusual- ly interesting hand to make three, no trump.

Weat will open the three of apades. West's opening land of the three spot marks him with four spades, therefore East has only one spade. Before playing] to this trick, declaror must stop and count his hand.

He is sure of making three spade tricks, one heart and one He needs diamond-that in five.

four club tricks for a safe game. He can easily cash his king and | queen of clubs, but he must now be careful to create for himself an entry in dummy,

Would you win this first trick with the ten? If so, you will have! lost your opportunity to make an

easy game.

Your proper play is to win your trick with the ace of spades and immediately cash your king and Jack of clubs, and now lead the. ten of spades.

If West refuses to win with the queen, go right up with the jack in dummy, cash the two good clubs, on which you will discard a small
