so many good breaks you can get be presented to the Undersigned on that you are justified in taking a alight gamble.
With the present award of 2260 for a grand slam, a player la justified in bidding for a grand slam even though he must dopend on a finesse to make his contract. However, when you do take these little gambles, you must be pre- pared to take advantage of any favourable breaks,
For example, in to-day's band, if West opened the queen of clubs, you will soo that the declarer would have to lose two clubs, a diamond and a spade, But-West opened a trump, which the declarer won with the queen, East coming up with the jack.
At this point many players would make the mistake of trying to ruff a spade, but can't you see that the minute you lead spades. the opponents are going to knock out your other trumps? You should realize that you have had a valuable break with F trump opening.

Today's Contract Problem
When North doubles the diamond bid by West, should East bid or paun? How many tricks can South's two-spade contract ba net it declarer fines the spades?
