"Good Strategy
Against Small Hands
By OSWALD JACOBY WE HAVE already pointed out
gome of the dangers of freez-
ing the pack during the edrly stages of a hand. | . Such a freeze is often just an out-and-out gamble, There are times, however, when an early! freeze is the correct play.
For example, suppose one oppo-| nent melds five or six cards from| 3 his hand, whereupon the other op-'
ponent also melds a few cards from his hand. You are now playing against two small hands, while you and

nothing you can do about that. You are certainly not worse off for having frozen the pack. If you had let the opponent
they would have scored even more and you would have. . Jants & big hand instead of Just a small hand. If the opponents fail to meld out in a hurry, you or your part-| ner should be able to take the pile in a short time, Then, by| reasonably careful discarding, you can probably keep picking up the pile until the hand ends. With average luck, you can run up-a-big-score. ¥
Avoid Depleting Hand This, of course, is a situation that you should be able to bring about only against poor players. | Good players will avoid depleting their hands during the early routids unless they expect to meld out very quickly. Even when only one opponent

This is not a bad freeze. You are completely safe for three rounds, with your deuce and your, two black threes, After that youl still have the other discard that)
