Down one also. The curious thing is that the contract cannot be missed if South only draws two rounds of trumps at the beginning of the hand. He then leads a diamond to dummy's king, not caring who has the ace. The defenders can take two or three diamond tricks, depending on their luck, but no more.

Pass Pass Pass Opening lead- played at both tables in the finals of the national team championships a few weeks ago, In both rooms South played the hand at four hearts against the opening lead of a low spade, Both declarers won the first trick with the ace of spades and promptly drew three rounds of trumps. The third round of trumps Was take, but not necessarily fatal, In both rooms South then continued by finessing a.

diamond to East's queen. In one room Fast boldly returned a low spade, and South made the fatal error of ruffing. When he led another diamond, West put up the ace and led another spade to force out 'declarer's last trump. Unfortunately, the diamonds were now blocked. South could lead to dummy's king of diamonds, and couid get back to his hand with the ace of clubs to lead another diamond to West's jack, but then South could never get in again to cash the last diamond.

Down one. This declarer should have discarded (instead of ruffing) when East led a low spade. Since East had led away from the king of spades, the rest would have been easy. But even if West had turned up with the king of spades, the tract would have depended only on a successful guess in diamonds later on. In short, South would have had two chances for his contract.

In the other room, East was not bold enough to return a spade when he got in with the queen of diamonds. He returned a club, which declarer should have won in the. dummy. Instead, South made the, mistake of winning in his own hand with the ace. He.

led a diamond, and West put up the ace. Opportunity was knocking once more at the door, for South could still make his contract by dropping type into a page form takes -Gazette.
