Contract Bridge

BY W. E. M'KENNEY StrrHary American Bridge League THERE is a popular saying which goes, “Lay down your aces against a slam contract.” That often is the best defense when the slam is bid in a suit, but it is of very doubtful value against a six no trump contract. An ace seldom is lost at no trump, and to take it in immediately often is playing directly into the declarer's hand. However, the West player in the following hand selected the wrong time to underlead his ace, and a clever squeeze by the declarer caused him to lose it entirely. The hand was played in the New Jersey state championship with lirs. E. F. Clement as declarer.

gent invitation to try for a slam. North responded with four no trump and this was all the encouragement that Mrs. Clement needed to carry the bidding to six no trump, which became the final contract. The Play West could have played his ace of clubs, thereby making sure that the contract w-ould be held to six. However, by leading the jack of clubs, he would have at least a fair chance to establish another trick in that suit. Accordingly, he selected that lead, and Mrs. Clement won in her own hand with the king of clubs. She now played the queen and jack of hearts, and whefl West discarded a club on' the second heart trick she knew he would be squeezed desperately by a continuation of that suit. A small heart was led to dummy's king, on which West discarded the ten of clubs, but when the ace of hearts was led he was in a hopeless dilemma. To discard the ace of clubs was out of the question, and since the declarer Trad bid diamonds it seemed advisable to keep all possible strength in that suit. West's best discard was a small spade, but on seeing the discard the declarer immediately led two rounds of that suit and entered dummy again with the queen of diamonds. The queen of spades now dropped the jack and ten together, and when the nine of spades was led, West again was squeezed. To discard the ace of clubs would establish dummy’s queen, and a diamond discard would allow the declarer to make all the remaining tricks in that suit. Therefore, Mrs. Clement made seven no trump and West's ace very effectually was put to sleep. <Copyright, 1932. NBA Service. Inc.)
