As I have pointed out before in this column. poms experts -not the maioriity. I am glad to say _u|c the “ace showing" system in 1o- spondlng two-bids. The glaring de- fect of this system is well revealed in today's deal.

This ws: the actual bidding, with the “ace-showing" system

being used:

South West North East 2 q. Pass z N r Poss 3 Q Pass 4 Q Pal 4 Q Pass Pass Pass

South made his tour-spade con- tract handily enough but there was no reason for his side to feel pleas- ed. because an easy slam at clubs had not even been sounded out.

Obviously, since he was confined to showing aces on the first round snd had none to show, North had no choice in the matter except to bid his two notrump. Over South's spade rebid, North did make an effort to discover a'fitting suit- but how could he possibly tell that a diamond bid would find South with a singleton whereas a club hid would have found him with ex- cellent support? Wnen the dia- mond bid brought nothing from

South except another rebid oi‘ his ‘

spades, North, not unnaturaliy. was atraid to investigate further with clubs. because by this time the game level had been reached, and ii BviithJiss no greater liking for clubs than he had had for rllu- monds. which was all too probable, then North might easily have car- rl-ed the partnership beyond u; depth. It would be optimistic in- tked 1° ersue that North's pass to four spades was our of order.

If. however, North had not found himself in the stmltjncket imposed by his system, he cculd have answered two spades with three diamonds, and three spades with four clubsl The game level tor spades would still be rruen. South, however. would have 'the material for a jump to six clubs, and that is where the hand would and should play.
