It certainly was the best played of the 840 board match between the Aces and the Billy Eisenberg who sat South probably bid a trifle optimistically opposite a passed partner, but Bobby produced almost perfect cards for him and with a reasonable trump break the slam should have been made fairly easily.

Billy ruffed East's ace of diamonds and led a club to dummy's ace. East discarded a diamond and Billy gave the hand some prolonged study. The hand was being played on vugraph and one of the commentators who was looking at all the cards pointed out that Billy could make the hand by simply taking the heart finesse, cashing the ce of hearts and the ace and king of spades and then cross ruffing. A second commentator pointed out that West could defeat that line of play by ruffing in first with the nine of clubs and then with the jack of clubs in order to lead out his last club. Meanwhile Billy continued to think and a third commentator then pointed out that Billy was going to make the hand by the simple expedient of taking both the heart and spade finesses although he would not try to cash the third spade.

Sure enough, Billy eventually did just that. He finessed his jack of spades, returned to dummy with the king, finessed his queen of hearts, cashed his ace of hearts and led a low heart. West ruffed with the club nine. Billy overuffed with dummy's king, ruffed a third diamond and led another heart. West did the best he could by ruffing with the jack an leading out his last trump but Billy was still able to cross ruff for two more trump tricks and make the last trick with the ace of spades.

who sell their blood regularly to receive monies to finance their habits. Red Cross blood donations are obtained only from the civic-minded volunteer donors.
