How to Play BRIDGE Scries 1928-29 by Wynne Ferguson Author of "PRACTICAL AUCTION EfUDCH'*

Csprtlsht 1518, by Uoyic, Jr.

ARTICLE No. 25

In a previous article attention was tailed to the fart that very often a player should bid his own suit after a double by his partner, even if he is sure tiial his purtner intends sucii double at a business double. The type of hand held and the bidding are the deciding factors —not the lact that partner has doubled for business. Some player si”: “I never take my partner out of a t • ’ouble": but there should Ik no such ,*«ord as “never” in Auction. The pk.vcr who “never” does this or that is more apt to lie w rong than right Keep an open mind at all times nml learn to use your own judgment. You know your own hand much better than your partner and are, therefore, in a much better position to decide what you should do with it. Here are two fine examples:

: Y

: A B

: Z

should take out his partner’s business double of two hearts with a three club bid. in the actual play, !! pas-ed and Y 7. made three hearts doubl'd, game and rubber; while at clubs A 15 would have stored four odd. Be on the lookout for such hands and don’t leave your partnf t in a business double unless your hand justifies it. Hand No. 2

No score, rubber game. Z dealt and passed. A bid one no trump, Y and 15 passed and Z bid two hearts. A doubled two hearts and every one at the table know that after he bid a no trump and then doubled an adverse suit bid, his double was a Imsincss double and in-

tended to defeat the bid.

Y passed and B was up against the

problem just referred to. Should h . Yuicc .o make three spades but may allow his partner’s business double m I make game and rubber.

J stay in or should he take him out v th ; a club bid? The answer to that quesa if :> Teems tMSv. for H a nocftihlc ' i u l:

If, however, he war. justit c l :n passing at that stage, he < ertal; Iv hould bid three spades when hi. .inner doubles three diamonds, l ir doubia is a business uoul le; but, it B has the- big hand indicated bv his two no trump bid and his double of ! three diamonds, A 15 not only have a

The ■ut'-ess of the double looks doubtful, while the three club bid germs a certa ' y. For that reason, B certainly

On the other hand, /’s bid of hearts ml diamonds and Y’s no trump hid are pretty good indications that they will not be badly defeated; so there is little to gain and a lot to lose by p.issing 15 s double. In the actual play A passed, and Z’s three diamonds were defeated only one trick; while at spades A B could luve scored lour odd, getue aad

rubber.

No score, rubber game. Z dealt and bid one diamond. A passed, Y bid two elubs, 15 iiasscd and Z bid two no trumps. All passed and A opened the six <4 hearts. How should Z now play the hand so th.it he can score a little ulaia against any defense? Z should win the trick in his hand i with the ten of hearts and then should ; lead two rounds of clubs and force A i in the lead on the third round. 7. should .discard the trey of hearts and the tree 'of diamonds. A’s best lead is the eight of diamonds which is won with Y’s 'king. * Y should now lead three rounds of jchibs. Z should discard the five of hearts, the seven of diamonds and the seven of spades. A and 15 also must make three discards. B should discord the deuce of hearts, the nine of diamonds and the five of spades. A should discard the seven of hearts and the dtuce and four of diamonds, t Y should now lead the jack of hearts, which Z wins with the ace, A following suit. B must discard. 1 le cannot discard the ten of diamonds or Z’s ace jack arc i^tiod, the;dote he is forced to discard

the nine of spades. Z should now lead the ucc of diamonds and A is forced to discard. He cannot discard the king of ho.irts or Vj tpieen of hearts will be good; therefore he is forced to discard the trey of spades. Y should now discard the queen of hearts anti B follows suit. Z should now lead the king of spades and follow with the eight of spades, winning the trick in Y's hand with the ace. Y’s tour of spades is now good, giving Y Z a little slam. Play the nand out for practice. If at trick five, A leads a spade, in lead of a diamond, Z should win the trick with tiie king and lead a diamond, winning the iri k in Y's hand with the king. From then on, the play is the same. A cannot lead a heart at trick four or Y will win the trick with the jack and so ‘core an easy little slam. 1 hi-; problem hand is a fine illuMrat ion ot the double squeeze. A and B are both forced to discard spades in order their t her cuits, after which t he> are forced or squeezed into losing a trick.

No score, first game at Contract. Z dealt, bid one spade and A passed. Y bid two diamonds, B bid two hearts ami Z passed. A liid three hearts, Y bid three spades and B bid four hearts. Z bid lour spades, A and Y passed and B doubled. All passed and A opened the king of hearts which held the trick. He then led the seven ol diamonds. Y played the fjueen and B won tlie trick wkli the king. B then led the six of clubs. 1 low should Z (dan the play from this point on? Z should win the trick in Y’s hand wnlhitlu ace of clubs and lead the eight of apaties. If B covers with the jack, Z shonld cover with the queen. If 15 plays Lhe-seven of spwics, Z should play the trejrof s(iadtb. Tlie result is the same, so piipfi.se the latter case, which U really B's best play. Y shoukl now lead the five of sjlades B plays the jack and Z the queen. Zsluadd now lead the five of bcarts-und trump in Y’s hand wii b fhgtra of spades. V should now lead thw^ue uf’rluhsarat win the trick with

the king in Z’s hand. Z should now lead three round.; of spades. A should disc.ird two clubs and a heart. Y should discard one club and two diamondet 15 is forced to mike two discard*. | he makes a mistake and discards the jack ten of le irts, Z can score game by le.uliiig a low heart and forcing B in the lead, us B must then lead up to Y’s nee ten of diamonds. B's proper discard, of course, is the ten and ace of hearts so that if Z next leads a heart, A will win the trick with the queen and lead the trey of diamonds. 15 must then make u diamond trick arid so saves game. , Note this liand carefully, for it is a fine illustration of forcing an opponent in the lead on the eleventh trick and then forcing him to lead up to a terrace in Declarer's or Dummy's hand. Note also how B can block this plan. In the actual play, B failed to discard his ace of hearts and Y Z scored a game and rubber by i cason of Z’e fine play.
