West opened the king of spades and shifted to a. trump when he saw dummyfls singleton.

That examination having proved futile. declarcr stared at the ceiling for a few seconds. Then he led e4 diamond to dummyb king and (messed a diamond return. Natur- ally. West took his queen of dia- monds, and East later got the ace of hearts to set. the contract. If South had stared at the dummy a little more and at his surround- lms a little less, he might have seern the correct line of play. After drawing two rounds of trumps he should have led a heart from his hand. If West held the ace of hearts and played it, the rest of dummy's hearts would furnish discards for three of South's diamonds; and if West held the ace and failed to play it. South would lose no heart trick and could afford to misgucss the diamond. Even though in this case the ace of hearts was in the East hand. nothing oould have been lost.
