Blackwood on Bridge—

It Often Pays fo Lead

All Trumps, Meek Learns

Have you ever noticed how the Mr. Meek in your game

hates to lead out his last trump when there is still a finesse to take? He has a horror of losing complete control of the hand and suffering the humiliation of having an entire suit run against him. Actually, there are many contracts which can be made by cashing all of the trumps — and with an absolute minimum of danger. I am not referring to the cashing of all trumps for the purpose of executing a squeeze or with the hope that an opponent will make a wrong discard. The situation I mean is the one illustrated in today’s deal —the cashing of all of declarer’s trumps simply for the purpose of getting an exact count on the defenders’ hands. = = » THE ACE and king of spades won the first two tricks as Mr. Meek muttered something about Miss Brash’s optimistic bidding. A third spade was ruffed by Mrs. Keen and Mr. Meek overruffed. A trump lead followed and Mr. Abel took the ace and returned a trump, dummy’s queen winning. Another trump lead tn the king took Mr. Abel's last one. Mrs. Keen discarded two small clubs on the last two trump leads. At thi® point Mr. Meek had one trump left and he held on to it grimly. He tried to break the diamond suit but on the third round Mr. Abel showed out, discarding a spade. Now the king of clubs was cashed

Therefore she originally had five clubs. After her play of the eight, she had one left. But was it the queen or not? There was no way to tell. Mr. Meek

king and followed with the ten on the next club lead. She would have then played five clubs and it. was preven she had started with exactly that number. She couldn’t have any more—unless the deck was faulty. Therefore the play of the ace was certain to drop the queen.
