It is all very tine. on defense. to center one'a attention and efforts on "the setting trick." but the sort of super-caution practiced by West in this deal is absu;d.

West was rather reckless when he; Inn. South in three uotrunip doub-l led. After all. North himself had mntributed largely to that CDIP tracts being reached. and his hand would not stand up to his own bid- ding.

West opened the club seven. Dum- in,x”s ten holding, South took tiie diamond finesse and then cashed the dlairimid arc. West. after long indecision. discarded a low club. iHe was afraid tiiat giving up ii heart would "show up" his partner in that suit. but he might have discarded ii lmv spadeii

Seeing the diamond break. South now led and passed the heart queen, and 'East ducked w.thout hesita- lion. South realized that the "sur- vess" of this finesse was highly questionable, but the only good place to look for tricks seemed to or in the heart suit, so he risked another linesse. East won and, sure that South would not have bid as he had with three hearts to the queen, boldly cashed the diamond king. his object being to let West get. rid of his last heart. But West had I different idea. To "scream for" a spade return that would let; him defeat the contract on the spot." West discarded another club as an unmistakable signal for East to abandon the club suit. East follow- ed orders. and West cashed two spades and the club ace, setting the contract one trick.

If West had held his clubs, as was so obviously in order. the pen- alty would have been 1100 points instead of 200.
