Solution to Previous
Contract Problem. There are only 18 cards in a sult, yet I am surprised at the number of people who cannot keep track of them and who continue to play the cards carelessly. Always give your opponents credit for knowing what they are doing.
Remember that they are trying to defeat your contract, and they do not play their cards carelessly at least, you do not have the right to assume that they do.
