Apparently the spade void induced Fisher to bypass the norma! five diamond response to Black wood. His leap to six might have been read by Jacoby as showing only one ace it was strictly a partnership matter but Jacoby, with eyes wide open, undertook the grand slam anyhow. He realized that if either red ace was missing hi might still make seven which is exactly what he did make with the opening spade lead.

At the second table, where Robinson and Jordan wort North-South against Kovtchoi and Rapee, the bidding went: Pottstown Memorial Medical Center Opening lead two of spades. This deal occurred in the world pair championship played in Amsterdam in 1966, and our story concerns itself with what happened at the two tables where four American pairs, by strange coincidence, were locked in mortal combat. At both tables the contract was seven clubs which could have been defeated with a heart lead by West and at both tables declarer made the grand slam! At the first table, Fisher and Jacoby i who finished second in West NorthEastSouth Pass 1 1 4 5 A Pass 5 Dble Pass Pass 7 Here, also, therewas a partnership misunderstanding. Robinson's pass of five spades doubled apparently induced Jordan to undertake seven, but obviously the meaning he attached to the pass was not read the way Robinson intended it However, as they used to in days of yore: well tha ends and Jordan made the grand slam whei West led a spade.
