BARCLAY ON BRIDGE By Shepard Barclay "The Authority on Authorities" HOW TO FIGURE IT OUT TO UNDERSTAND the odds for and against a particular finesse, as compared to an effort to drop a missing honor, a student lay out the known cards in their actual position, then try the unlocated cards In all of the different positions they could possibly occupy. By noting then which piay works cetter with each situation, he can usually see very clearly which play Is the more advantageous Hence, he is ready to play the combination more confidently the next time It arises. 4 7 3 4 10 6 2 9 5 4 That is the way the trumps were divided at the start of play on a hand which wound up in an argument To make his contract, South had to avoid losing three tricks in trumps. He managed it successfully, but then all three of the other players said he succeeded In spite of the fact that he played the combination improperly.

So let's see If he did. His first lead of trumps from dummy was the 3. Eaat used the 2, and South the which all agreed waa the correct first round play, even though the A took it. Later he led the 7 and East put on the 6, Now comes the whole basis of the argument. Should South play the or the Actually he played the 8 and It won.

After South had ruffed two tricks with small trumps, toward the end he got a "coup" position against East for the last two tricks, leading another suit from dummy, so East could take only one trick with his remaining K-QO of Spades with South holding: the Q-9. After the first trump trick, the only outstanding trumps of the defenders were the 10 and 6. They could be divided eight ways between the defenders, with East holding the K-10-6, the K-10, the K-6, the the 10-6, the 10, the 6 or none. After East put the 6 on the 7, there were only four to be considered, the K-10-6, K-6. 10-6 and 6 alone.

With the last of those, West would hold the K-10, and it made no difference what South did; he would be bound to lose two tricks. With the other three, twa favored play of the 8, one favored play of the Q. If East had the K-6, West would have the 10 now alone, so the play would pay profits. But if East had the K-6 exactly as frequent a distribution as the 10-6, the 8 play was best. Those two combinations being a stand-off, the advantage lay then with play against the K-10-6, which waa the 8.

So South'a play was sound, and West, North and East were all wrong in saying the was the right play.
