THIS I0-CALLED bridge crime It ”nneulng againlt one'a own partner" la in reality a "mu" play in a great many different dtuationa.

Here is one of those situations:

South dealer. North-South vulnerable.-

South's holding mesaured up in most respects to u one-notrump opening. but his worthless double- ton tn cluha was a defect that he (wisely) refused to-ignore.

West made the non-nal openin, from his holding. the three of hearts. Dummy played low. bat put up an queen. and South waa happy to yin the trick since he

Now let's see what the result could Moo bun.

Assume that last. giving no thought to the supposed crime of nnesoing against partner. had played the heart eight at Trick 1. That would have fixed South. If he won with the ten. East's subsequent lead of the heart queen would deliver four tricks to the defense (along with the club ace); and if south let East win with the heart eight, West would more- ly have to duck East's heart re- turn. maintaining defensive com- rnunicationa.

Would the suggeatetd play for

the queen-fall into the realm of double-dummy play? In other words. old he hove to be second. sighted? No! West's opening lead. marked declarer with three cards higher than the three-spot. If South had the heart are, it would not matter what card East played, since South would certainly hold up his ace for two rounds. cut- ting the East-West communica- tions: but if South lacked the ace. he might. easily be held to one heart trick by East's keeping the queen to amwter dummy's jack on a later return.
