     OVERCONFIDENCE 
     
    

    
     It was rather foolish of South in 
     
     ifldflys deal to depend on the {sv- 
     
     Orflbls. position of an outstanding 
     
     ace. when he could have made his 
     
     contract no matter where it lay. 
     
    
   
   
    
     North-South vuln hi; 
     
    
   
   
    
     having made one desper- 
     
     sta attempt to shut out the enemy. 
     
     subsided after North went to live 
     
     hrarts. understandably afraid that 
     
     another spade bid might  ‘~ the 
     
     o ants to a miakablo slam. As 
     
     t ngs went he had done enough. 
     
     anyway! 
     
     A club lead would have defeated 
     
     the five-heart contract off the 
     
     reel, but. West could scarcely be ex- 
     
    
   
   
    
     pected to guess that and made the‘ 
     
    
   
   
    
     more conventional and prosaic s 
     
    

    
     ectlon of the spade king. ill/inning 
     
     with the blank ace, declarer dre-w 
     
     two rounds 0-1 trumps, then, since 
     
    
   
   
    
     dumrny's diamonds, led s club so- 
     
     \v=rd the king, confident thst tho 
     
     club ace would be in West's hand. 
     
     “for his bid." The confidence was 
     
     misplaced. and three" clubs 
     
    

    
     lost in rapid succession for g de- 
     
     feat of one trick. 
     
    

    
     South's complacency relative to 
     
     the club situation was iii-advised, 
     
     to put in kindly. How much shrewd- 
     
     er and more logical this linc of 
     
     play would have been: 
     
    

    
     After drawing the adverse trumps 
     
     Souti; goes to dummy and rufls 
     
     away-the remaining spade. He then 
     
     c shes the three top diamonds. and 
     
     observes that West “fails" on the 
     
    
   
   
    
     another clubi This is the oppon- 
     
     ents’ first trlck- and what can 
     
     East. do to win two more? If lie 
     
     returns a spade or a diamond, de- 
     
     clarer gets rid of sLi-il another 
     
     cluh ivhilo ruffing in dummy‘; if 
     
     East returns a club, from the r\\\'§ 
     
     or not from the ace, ihc- club ‘king 
     
     must become established.
