A A A A a THE PLAIN SPEAKER, HAZLETON, SATURDAY AFTERNOON, SEPTEMBER 24, 1955 BIRTHS PATTERNS JACOBY ON BRIDGE Bridge Foes Never Err (By OSWALD JACOBY) (Written for NEA Service) South looked to the opponents in today's hand, but it for help wasn't forthcoming. Mind you, there's nothing wrong with playing for the enemy to make a mistake, but it doesn't pay to rely on hopeless blunder if you have a any better chance by straightforward play. West led the three of diamonds, East put up the queen, and South won with the ace. South took the king of spades and then looked around for a way to persuade the enemy to lead a spade to dummy's ace. This was silly, since the play of the king of spades made the whole situation clear to the defenders.

South actually continued with a diamond, and West hopped up with the jack of diamonds and continued with another diamond to his partner's king. East next led the three of clubs, and West won with the jack. West knew that his partner had either the queen or ace of clubs since East wouldn't have led a low clubs unless he could stand a return lead in the suit. (If East had held only small clubs, he would have led a fairly high spot- NORTH 23 4A9843 A A A 95 964 4 852 WEST EAST A J762 A 105 10 6 Q42 J73 Q82 A 93 SOUTH (D) MAKJ873 A 105 00106 North-South vul.

to warn his partner against returning the suit.) Hence, West knew that it was safe to continue with the king of clubs. When this held the trick, West led a third club. East took the ace of clubs, thus completing the job of reducing South to his trump suit. East then led the thirteenth diamond. South had to decide whether to trump with the jack or with the seven.

He guessed wrong and was overruffed by the ten. Now a spade lead forced South to ruff, and East got a trump trick with his queen. South was thus down two on a hand that he should have made. The correct play is to overtake the king of spades with rummy's ace and finesse the jack of hearts at once. The finesse succeeds, and South can draw trumps, making six trump tricks and two aces.
