CONTRACT: BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

It is rather difficult for the aver nge player to learn that he must not put in an overcall-that is, make a defensive bid-when vul- acrable unless he holds about two and one-half high card tricks and a five-card suit.

To overcall with less strength when vulnerable is only subject- ing oneself to tremendous penal- tiés.

How does a gool player win contantly? Not by simply blil- ding and making game. It is not difficult for even a beginnér at contract to arrive at game- going contract on the 'great ma- jority of good hands.

#

Also, if that were true, the good players would necessarily have to be dealt most of the good cards, because the better players are cautious and will not bid for game when there is not a game in the hand.

Let me again repeat the ques- tion-how do they win constant- ly? By being. forever on the their alert-ever ready to trap opponents with a heavy penalty double if they make the slightest mistake, especially when vulner- abic.

A vulnerable overcall by an op- ponent should immediately warn you that his hand contains a fair amount of strength. A partner's" pass should

an additional warning.

The Bidding.

South's hand contained four quick tricks and a five-card rebid- dable suit; therefore, even though his side. is vulnerable, he is justi- fied in making an original bid of onc. heart,

East and West are

also vulnerable.

West finds himself with three quick tricks, a biddable four-card suit and a weak five-card major suit. As he can overeal with a one bid if he elects to name the major, he decides that there la no grave danger and bids one spadé. North passes, as does East.

South should be warned, as his partner has passed, after South's original bid. West, who is vulner |able, has put in an overcall.

It is true that South holds the ace and king of the suit that West bid, but this should be an addi-j tional warning that undoubtedly West's high card strength lies in clubs and diamonds. South, how- ever, re-bid his hearts, and West)

North has normal trump sup- port,, and he has 3. doubleton which has some value. Partner has elected to keep the bidding open vulnerable, therefore North has a perfect right to feel that his partner has considerable re- serve strength. North now bid three bearta. South did not make the second mistake of bid- ding four hearts, but passed.

The Play.

West's opening lead was the king" of clubs followed by the ace, South trumping the second club with the deuce of hearts. South could now see that it would be necessary to trump at least two more clubs.

He led the ace of hearts and then the nine of diamonds which West won with the ace.“ West led anather club, which South trumped with the three of hearts.

Another diamond was led and dummy's ten was won by East with the jack. East returned the queen of clubs.

Declarer trumped with the king of hearts and led the eight of dia- monda, which East won with the king, East returned the queen of apades, which South, won with the ace and then led the six of hearts, winning in dummy with the jack.

The queen of hearts picked up East's last trump and the declarer discarded liis losing spade on this last trump.

Instead of attempting to ruff a spade early in the play, which would have lost his contract, the declarer preserved his trump in dummy in order to be able to pick! up the opponents' trump and dis- card his loser at the same time."
