Mr. Dale

A V ♦

In today's deal. Mr. Dale openI ed the seven of spades against Mr. Muzzy’s three no trump contract. This was no place for the ( holdup play. But Mr. Muzzy thought it was. They weren't going to catch him winning the first trick with the ace of spades. No. he played 1 the six from dummy, nodding his . head sagely as if he knew where ill the cards were. OUTSMARTED Mrs. Keen won with the queen and returned the suit. Dummy's ace won and now there was no play for nine tricks. Diamonds had to be set up and on the first lead of that suit Mr. Dale stepped in with the ace and ran enough spades to defeat the contract. t As Mr. Champion pointed out, the ace of spades was the correct play from dummy at trick one in this situation. If Mr. Dale had j started with four spades there i would be no problem as the deI fenders could then win only three } spades and a diamond. If Mr. Dale had five spades, then Mrs. Keen could have only two. But in this variation, orre of Mrs. Keen's tw r o cards was al-

have led the king, not a small spade. A BETTER PLAY Playing dummy’s ace at trick one. then, would leave Mrs Keen with a lone honor—which would block the suit. In other words, when Mr. Dale got in with the ace of diamonds he could not lay down his king of spades because that w r ould drop his partner’s honor, making Mr. Muzzy’s 10 spot a second stopper. If Mr. Dale returned a low spade to his partner’s honor, she could not return the suit. Mr. Champion explained all this in detail but Mr. Muzzy finally saw a- way to stop the flow of words. “I meant to play the ace cf spades at trick one,” he lied, "and I pulled out the six by mistake."
