Solution to Previous Contract Problem. You can seldom play а hand poorly and get away with a good score, but a pair will get them- selves all tangled up in the bidding. and before they know it, they are slam contract. And then, in a once in a while, by clever play... Ewok. Za they will go out and make the con- tract.
But that is part of the game, and that is what happened in today's hand. I am giving the bidding as it actually occurred-not that approve of it in any manner.
