did you play a small spade from tummy? If so, I am afraid that i you'd be in trouble. You must make at least three spade tricks to get your contract, and you have only one re-entry in dummy, so the thing you must do is to go right up with the ace in dummy, even though it does catch your singleton king.

You should return your jack of spades immediately and discard a club. West should refuse to win the first spade, and then, when North continues with the ten of spades. Enzt echoes in hearts and West wins with the queen.

He leads the ten of hearta. De- East allows the trick to ride. clarer playa low from dummy and South wins the trick with the queen.

Declarer now tries for a break in diamonds by leading the ace und king of diamonds, but the drop-of the queen by West warns him that the diamond suit will ant break.

Declarer now leads the five of hearts, and when West plays the alx, declarer wins the trick with the ace and West plays the nine.

Today's Contract Problem

flere in an amusing hand for you to work on West is the declarer at six spades. North opens a heart. I want you to get the declarer's hand down to four deucer, au! hy must make seven-odd.
