trump bid (BlackwoodJ located one ace. and South decided to go all the way without investigating for kings. ,

Against the diamond lead there is only one correct course of play, The declsrer has one loser to take' care of-the queen of hearts. There are three ways to avoid the loss of that trick. He may finesse the heart queen or he may finesse the club queen. If whichever he chooses to finesse succeeds the contract is in. But if the finesse loses declarer gets no second chance. Furthermore. declarer can have no compelling reason to prefer one finesse to the other. only a 50- per cent chance of success.

But the career method of play: is to finesse neither. If he gives up say the club finesse. he is no O worse off than he was-he still 5 retains the 50 per cent chance. g And he gains something in - 'O chang achancatobuildupte club suit for a discard. South should discard a heart from dum- my on the opening lead. Next he i..::is a club to the ace and rum a club with a high trump. Then a low trump to dummy's nine, ruffing another club in his hand high. Now a trump to the ten. ruffing the fourth round '0! clubs.' The queen of clubs has been set up to take care of the heart queen. There is one further comment we'd like to make. We like the WHY South deals.
