ADWY The Play
Batavia Although West's hand holds five Bombay clubs and four diamonds, the dia- Canton mond is opened in preference to phong the clubs because leading the clubankow would be leading to declarer's Kobe strength, while leading a diamond Kowloon is through dummy's strength,
If a sult is headed by queen, jack, ten, the queen is the proper opening, therefore West opens the queen of diamonds, dummy wins with the ace, returning the king of clubs. A heart is led to do- clarer's ace-then the ace of cluba is led by declarer, dummy discard- ing the five of diamonds, the queen dropping from the East hand.
Declarer continues with the ten of clubs, discarding another dla- mond from dummy, East also dis- carding diamond. Hoping for
a heart break, the king of hearts is led; but Weat shows out, dis- carding the eight of hearts.
East now has a tenace position Do- over the dummy's hearts. clarer switches and leads the three of spades, West plays low, dummy plays the nine, East winning with the jack.
