Take for example the following hand. South, playing the hand at three no trump, will get the dia- mond opening from West, who will open the fourth best of "that suit.East will play the jack, and before playing to the trick the declaret must analyze the hand. spade He can see four tricks, one diamond, a sure heart trick and a sure club trick-seven in all. To make his contract he must take the club neise.

With the ace and queen of clubs in dummy he must finesse to the East hand; therefore when East plays the jack on the first diamond- lead, the declarer must hold up and

nine of diomonds, declarer will play the queen, and if West wins the trick with the ace and returns another diamond, declarer will win the trick with the king.
He will then take his club finesse and East will have no other diag mond to return. His natural re- turn will be a heart; and South must not finesse, but must Ka right up with his ace.

Now let us suppose that it is the nee and South who holds queen of clubs. West, would still open a diamond. The, declarer' now holds the ace of clubs and the club finesse must be taken to- ward the West hand-in other words, towards the hand which holds all the diamonds
The declarer in this case musti win the first trick with the queen of diamonds, enter dummy with a spade, return a club and take the finesse. Even if West does hold the king, South still holds the king and one diamond, which has the suit stopped with West in the lead, although. It is not stopped if East were to get in the lead.
The original hand-with North holding the see of clubs-also em." bodies another interesting hoid;
up.
Suppose that West opens the five of diamonds East plays the jack, Declarer would hold of and play the seven. Now when East re- turns the nine of diamonds. South will play the queen and West can employ a pretty hold-up by re- fusing to win this trick.
