For example-If you hold 180 honours in rubber bridge in no trump, and the bidding indicates there is a slam, and maybe a safe CANTORE KUCHING. slam in hearts, you simply plny cenu the contract at hearts.

West continues with the ten of Canton diamonds. This play practically iron (any) M marks him with four dinmands and, ns he doubled, he must have the king of clubs, no the declarer can try to more fineasca.
He takes two rounds of hearts and discards a apade and a club from his hand. West lets go two spades. Then the declarer leads a amall spude, wins in his own hand with the ace, and plays the four of spades, and on this play West is squeezed.
"He can't let go of the diamonds, so ie drops the nine of clubs, which gives the declarer a perfect reading of West's hand-he has only two diamonds and the king-of- clubs.
The king of diamonds is cashed,
a club is played and won with the ace. Now the jack of clubs is geod, and the declarer makes his contract of six no trump, doubled.
