Solution to Preceding Contract Problem While many natural aqueezes arrive overy day at contract, a great many of the squeeze plays that are made at the bridge table are what aro termed pseudo- squeezes. In other words, they are squeezes that proper defence could have prevented..

In defending a hand in which the declarer has a long trump ault to run, you must make an carly decision as to which card you must hold to protect the squeezo. You and your partner

This is not a hard hand to read, due to the fact that you can see, if your partner holda the high spade and the high diamond, he is going to have a difficult time protecting both, and East's dia- foond play marks him with a cer- tain diamond holding.

East cannot drop the queen of spades or dummy's ace-Jack will | be good, so he must let go the ten of diamonds, but now, due to the fact that West has retained his eight and seven of diamonds the declarer cannot complete the aqueeze.

He still must lose one trick, which defeats the contract, while, if West carelessly had discarded a diamond, four odd would have been made.
