Harbin Hongkong With the queen of diamonds *ery darcription trenselad, opening, it looks as though the de- sarly rental from $1 in $40. clarer is going to have trouble making his contract. However, if he is careful about his entries, the hand can be made.
The queen of diamonds is won with the ace, the ace and king of hearts are cashed, and then the ace and king of clubs. Now the jack of clubs must be led;
West will let go a diamond and the jack should be overtaken in duramy with the queen. This es- tablishes the six of clubs as.an entry.
Now the queen of hearts is cashed, declarer discarding the deuce of spades. It is followed by the ten of hearts, declarer releas ing the four of diamonds and West winning with the jack..
West cannot return a spade, or it will be Inte the declarer'a ten- ace, so he must lead the jack of diamonds, which the declarer wins with the king and then leads the five of clubs. West discards a spade and the trick is won in dum-] my with the six.
