The bad results come far more often than tlie good ones and in addition the player who bids this way loses all pai-tner- ship confidence. West's gyrations with today's hand almost succeeded. His double of five clubs resulted in South playing five clubs redoubled instead of six clubs or diamonds undoubled. The score for five dubs redoubled with an overtrick is 1,350 points made up of 400 below the line plus 500 for game, 400 for the overtrick and 50 for making the contract. The score for six clubs bid and made is 1,370.

West was a mathematician and knew all this when he doubled five clubs. South ruffed the spade with bis king of trumps and led low to dummy's eight. When both opponents followed South noted that West had no double and that he had a cinch for a small slam. Then he worked out the score and saw that he was going to lose to anyone who bid a slam in either dubs or diamonds. At this point South decided he was going to ti-y to fix West right back.

He ruffed a second spade in his own hand and led his five of diamonds. West played low and South finessed dummy's seven. Then he ruffed dummy's last spade with his last trump, entered dummy with the queen of diamonds; discard ed his three low hearts on dummy's three trumps and spread his hand for a grand slam and a top score of 1,750.
