     be more natural for the hand in 
     
     question. This practice. however, is 
     
     dangerous to players who cannot 
     
     be sure that they will extract every

     trick. At owo tables. where experts 
     
     sat South. the final contract was 
     
     six notrump, and this too was made 
     
     by adopting the right line oi.’ play. 
     
    

    
     At one taible. however. where an- 
     
     other South was ambitious enough 
     
     to choose notrump over hearts, the 
     
     outcome was not so satisfactory. 
     
     West led the spade queen. The ace 
     
     won and South ran oil his five heart 
     
     tmks. East was a little embarrassed 
     
     for discards, but only a llttle- he 
     
     let go two clubs and tvwo spades. 
     
     trusting his partner, o! course, to 
     
     talks care of the spade suit. Now 
     
     when South tried to run the entire 
     
     diamond suit he was in for e, shook, 
     
     and he ended up just one trick 
     
     short. 
     
     To repeat. it was tempting tn try 
     
     lnr six notrump instead qt being 
     
    
   
   
    
     satisfied with six hearts (honors 
     
     do not count at match-point play)

     given in to temptation in this deaL 
     
     The way the same slx-notrump con- 
     
     tract was fulfilled st the two above- 
     
     mentimiod tables was simply this: 
     
    
   
   
    
     they would have to lose one trick 
     
     at best. gave up that trick im- 
     
     mediately a; some IIBIESMOG against 
     
     the possibility that they would run 
     
     into a bod diamond break. That 
     
     early concession proved to be East's 
     
     Waterloo! The spade ace was knock- 
     
     ed out on- the next lead, but then, 
     
     when South rim oi’! his live heart
