By W. E. McKenney

I presume you have often heard the remark made when a certain expert was being discussedThat fellow can tell every card you hold after the second or third play." While that is not aways literally true, the bettor player does try to count a hand ̋down.

When your partner makes a bid, try to picture the hand. During. the play of the haud don't count only the trump--try to visualize the entire hand, keeping track of each sult. You will be surprised, after just a littlo practice how easily this can be necomplished.

I thought the following hand pre- sented an interesting play due to the fact that the declarer was able to count the hand down.

The Bidding

South bid one heart. West made a negative double, showing strength In spades. North bid two dia monds-this is a strength-showing bid after a double. East passed, South bid two hearts. West pass ed and North went to four hearts, which East wisely did not double.

The Play

At one table a club was opened by West. The declarer won with the queen and returned a diamond. West won with the ace and led a

However, the Interesting play came up at the table which opened the fourth best spade. East won with the ace and returned the ten of spades, which was won in dum- my with the king.

Declarer led the acc of clubs, followed by a small club from dum my, and returned the six of dia- monds, which West won with the West immediatey cashed the queen of spades, East discarding a diamond.

This discard of a diamond sbould' show that East is in a position to ruff diamonds, or that he has not- hing but diamonds and trump left. West returned the four of dia- monds, which was won in dummy with the queen, and when East showed up with a diamond; the declarer could now read practically every card the two hands.

declarer The only chance the Inow had to make his contract was

to find West out of hearts, so the king of diamonds was led and the king of clubs discarded by the declarer. Of course

West does not trump, the five hearts are marked in the East hand..

when

The six of hearts was then played from dummy, East played low and declarer played the three.. When the nino of hearts was led from dummy, East covered with the ten, declarer won with the king and then led a low heart to dum- my's queen. A diamond was then played and East. was forced to ruff. The declarar over-ruffed and picked up East's other trump.
