After East interjected a on Spade Overall South bid the limit of his hand. West led the eight of Spades and Declarer won the Ace. His first play from Dum my was the Ace of clubs and when the King dropped the hand was Over. Then might be some among our renders who think that South was just Plain Lucky and that the Correct Way to tackle the club suit in View of the Ovi recall was to Lead Low to the Queen. We Don to like to disillusion you but despite anything that might be said to the contrary Declarer s line of play was winning technique and not Blind Chance. Let us look at the hand from Declarer s Angle. When Dummy came Down Declarer saw immediately that he could not lose his contract if Kast held the Ace c 1978 the Chicago Tribune of hearts he would have to give up Only one heart trick and one club. But what if West had the Ace of hearts in that Case Declarer might still be Able to set up the club suit for a heart Dis card. He could accomplish that if the suit broke no worse than 4-2 and if East did not hold the King of clubs. Dummy s Trumps would serve As entries to Ruff out the chips and Cash the Long club for the heart stuff. If East did hold the King of clubs and West the Ace of hearts Declarer was a goner except in one unlikely event that East s King of clubs was Singleton. So cashing the Ace was safety play which actually gave Declarer several extra chances to bring Home his contract. For instance it would also succeed if East held a single ton Jack of clubs. Q & a q.
