CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

Are you familiar with baudling the redouble at contract when om- ploying the Sims negative double? Most people redouble without any

While I do not really belleva you will come across the follow- ing situation very often, I give you the hand because it brings out, even in a situation as bad as this, what vital information is ex changed between partners when they properly understand how to handle tho redouble.

This hand come up in a tour- nament. The North and South Sept. 27 pair were using the Boland Club Ost. Bystem. Just because they re- Oct. 24ceived a bad result on this board Nov. 6 Dec. 82 is no discredit to the system.

negative double. South doubled. A redouble should say to your partner, "Let me 'handle the next bid. I may support your Isult or our opponents may bid Into my hand and I may want to double them."

North and South had not as yet named a real suit-both of their bids had been arbitrary, so the re- double was wrong. However, after a redouble is made, what yhóald the partner do? Bear this in mind-when your partner doubled he asked you for information re- garding your hand, and the fact that an opponent put in a redouble does-not-relieve-you-of-this-re-- sponsibility. Do not pass unless Beyrouth, Istanbul, Piraeus you are willing to play the hand

at one diamond doubled and re- doubled.

In this ease, after South re- doubled, diamonds was the best sult West had, so he passed. North

also passed, but this is wrong na he does not have real diamond sult-his diamond response being arbitrary.

Eust figured that so long as the diamond bid was arbitrary he would not give North and South a chance to get into the right sult, so he passed.

North and South made two dia- monds, but not being vulnerable they received only 330 points; while if they played the hand at no trump they can easily make four odd.
