The Play

West cashes the ace, king, and queen of clubs, and then leads the queen of diamonds, which South must win with the ice. He has a losing trick in his hand-and the only way that he can get rid of it is on a heart..

If the hearts are divided four- three, he can see a possibility of making his contract--but he must watch his entries, so his first play Is the three of hearts, winning with the ace in dummy. A heart is, returned and declarer, should trump with the eight of spades- not a small one.

Now the five of spades is led and won in duminy with the nine. An- ather heart is returned and this time it should be won with the ten of spades-not the deuce.

The jack of spades must be led next and won in dummy with the queen. A heart is returned and Fuffed with the king of spades, We have finally estabílshed that little heart.

At the same time, we have re- served the deuce of spades. In our own hand and the three spot in dummy, which is the needed entry.
