teams.
Burnstine is a very accurate and careful player. Here's # nice squeeze piny he made in a recent championship tournament.
The Play
West opened the ace of dinmonds to prevent the discard of a possible singleton diamond on a spade. When the ace held, West continued with the queen of diamonds, which Burnstine won in dummy with the king, discarding a club.
Some players might foolishly start out to set the spades, but Burnstine saw that he did not have enough trump entries to do that.
Today's Contract Problem
West has the contract at three spades. What in tho maximum number of tricks North and South can take, provided West nesacs dia- monds and spades?

It was immaterial what
East played.
Now, three rounds of spades were taken and, on the third round, West must bear down to the single, ton king of clubs and the jack of diamonde.
So Burnstine lends a club and, as he has kept track of West's hand, he plays the ace and drops the blank king, which establishes his queen.
