Opening lead—king of clubs.

The declarer would often do better if he knew exactly how the opponents’ cards were divided Seldom would he fail to make as many tricks as possible if he could see the adverse hands.

An important part of dummy play, therefore, is to be able to figure out the makeup of the op- ponents’ hands, even though their cards cannot actually be seen.

He led seven rounds of trumps in succession, reducing his own hand to the singleton eight of hearts and the 8-3 ‘of diamonds. In dummy he kept the queen of hearts and the A-Q of diamonds.

East had to come down to three cards also, and held the king of hearts and the K-7 of dia- monds.
