CONTRACT BRIDGE

By W. E. McKenney

A hand usually contains only one. good-lesson, but the following hand contains four-one in bidding and three in the play of the hand.

The Bidding

South, the dealer, bid ono club, West overcalled with ond heart, North. bid two. diamonds and South bid two epades. West bid three hearts, and North bid three spades,

萌

Some South players now went to four spades. However, the bot- ter bid is four diamonds. This gives North the choice of going to four spades or five diamonds. If he goes to four spares the hand should be passed, while if he goes to five diamonds, South is just fled in bidding for the small slam in diamonds...

The Play

In playing the hand at Mamonds, the declarer should establish the fifth club upon which to discard his five of spades, thereby avoiding the necessity of guessing the spade fincene.

At several tables South was the declarer at four spades. When West opens the nee of hearts and continues with a heart, South must refuse to ruff the second heart be enuse he holds, only four apades and one of the opponents may also holl four.

To ruff would certainly lose the contract. By refusing to ruff the second heart all that the declarer need do is to lose a spade, and his contract is made.

won with the king. The natural play to most people is to try to ruff one of the losing clubs, but this play is wrong.

You have a singleton heart, therefore you can expect to find uneven distribution in the other two hands. The lead of a diamond. certainly looks like a singleton. If you ruff the third club and it is overrufted by East, Ensi will lead a dinmond which will be ruffed by West. Then another club will be rolurned which will cause you to lose an extra spade trick.

The correct play is to lead a trump immediately to dummy's king, take the spade finesse, lead another trump and then start the diamonds. Eust will be forced to ruff with his good trump, and that is the only trick the declarer riend Jono.
