Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridge League 'T'HE hands selected from championship events for publication usually contain a game contract which is either made or defeated by spectacular play. However, the majority of the hands played in such events are just as commonplace as those played anywhere else. There are dozens of hands in which skillful play is required to make one or two odd, besides the usual sprinkling of misfits which lead to disaster. There is, however, one important difference, in that each hand has an equal bearing on the final outcome. ,The defense must be on its toes every minute and can not afford to play listlessly because the contract is an unimportant one. It is just as important to defeat a one bid as a grand slam.

The Bidding

A one-over-one player would not open the South hand in first position, but this particular player happened to be using a different sys--tern, so he opened with one heart. West passed and North bid one spade. This was perfectly satisfactory to South, and, seeing no fur-

ther need to continue the bidding, he passed and one spade became the final contract. The Play East inferred from the bidding that North must have four spades and South three, which, of course, left none for his partner. Furthermore, his opponents had all the high spades between them and would try to make them separately if possible. Therefore, he determined that his best defense was to lead a spade at every opportunity, compelling declarer to take each trick twice. He led the deuce of spades, dummy played the ten spot and when West discarded a small club the declarer knew that he was in for trouble. He overtook the first spade trick with the ace in his own nand ana returned the ten of clubs, hoping to set up an extra trick or two in that suit. East did not cover with the queen, and the trick went through to West’s king. He returned a diamond, which East won with the king; then East continued his original plan by leading another small spade. Declarer left the lead in dummy this time and returned a diamond, hoping to get a ruff in that suit before dummy’s trumps were exhausted. • However, East again won the diamond trick with the ace, and returned the third spade. West discarded his last club. Declarer led the ace of clubs from dummy and followed with the jack, West discarding two hearts and East ruffing the last club trick. The relentless barrage of spades was continued, putting declarer in the lead with the king. He still had a chance to make his contract if he could find the king of hearts in the East hand, so he decided to stake everything on that possibility. However, the finesse failed and he was dow* two tricks, rewarding East and West with a top score for their excellent defense. (Oopyrisbi, 1933. NEA Strvic*. X*X „
