"You know you're brought up on movies where a night club always shows an actor in a posh supper club saying 'Hi, folks' to the people who promptly love his act. You don't hear the noise, or feel the inattention. It's fine if you're a big star and can demand the exit sign lights be turned out and no drinks served while you're on.

Freak hands produce freak results, as witness this deal played during- the 1962 World Bridge Pair Olympiad. All kinds of results were achieved at the 39 tables where the hand was played, but we record here only those obtained by the two American East-West pairs. At one table, Jordan and Robinson who finished fifth-bid their cards as shown. The two diamond bid by North showed game-going; strength, but not necessarily diamonds.

Jordan Jumped to five diamonds, partly In the hope of making it and partly for the purpose of jamming the bidding. He later doubled six hearts but wound up taking1 second money. The Dutch declarer lost a. spade and no more, scoring 1,210 points. As a matter of fact.

South would have made an overt rick had West led a diamond instead of a club. The other American pair (Miles and Feldesman) had far better luck. Their bidding: went: West North East South Pass 2 5 Pass 7 Dble South's pass gave West the opportunity to pile another preemptive bid on top of the one his partner had made. Over West's seven diamonds. North found himself deeply frustrated, since he had not yet bid either of his suits.

He doubled, for want of anything better to do, and everyone passed. South had to make a blind opening lead, knowing: very little about his partner's hand. After great travail he led the jack of spades. This permitted declarer to make four spade tricks, thus avoiding: a club loser, and East-West made seven diamonds doubled for a score of 1,630 points. This was 2,840 points better than their compatriots had done with exactly the same cards! 2ND DIG WEEK HELD OVER 6 DAYS LEFT Our Loict Low Overhead Means We Can Pass the Big, Big Savings on to You.
