   European Stars And Stripes (Newspaper) - February 5, 1950, Darmstadt, Hesse                                Budge by Josephine Culbertson the very fact that a Declarer May have been the recipient of Good Luck at the first trick should make him play with extreme care in Realier.

Pass pass pass South was none too confident when he bid two no Trump on the second round but he obviously hoped that his club suit would give him six tricks and that his jacks in Spades an diamonds might turn into auxiliary stoppers. Feeling this Way about his own bid. South should have been All the More pleased when West opened the six of diamonds and after Dummy had played the Deuce the Diamond nine Cap tured the first trick. Now with the favourable Diamond situation revealed East scarcely would have held up the King if he had had it South could and should have revised his estimate about the club tricks needed. Apparently however he simply took his original Good Fortune in stride and promptly Laid Down two top clubs. From that time on he was in trouble South s own hand was now dead except for the club queer and the up shot was that the contract was Defeated. When South found that he could figure on three Diamond tricks with reasonable Assur Ance he should have made a safety play in the club suit. He no longer needed six clubs to round out the contracts five tricks in that suit would be ample. To insure those five tricks As far As possible South should have led a Low club from his own hand at the second trick so As to leave a club in Dummy for communication. The opponents could not make any dangerous. Attack in Spades while Dummy held King Small and South held three to the Jack hence after conceding the club trick to guard against a 4-1 break of the suit South could run five club tricks and then take the marked finesse in diamonds.
