For our Bridge partners we prefer Pessi mists those who always fear the worst. If an Optimist were sitting South he would like his club holding and try for bigger things by making a slam try of four clubs. That might propel North beyond four Spades. The Pessimist would be inhibited by his ageless hand and scrawny Trump holding so he would Settle for four Spades. The play of the hand also would Likely be different. Those who Wear Rose coloured spectacles would Reck on that if the club finesse were right and if they could pick up the Trump suit without loss they would make 12 tricks. Therefore after winning the Queen of hearts they would Lay Down the King of Spades at trick two. When West showed out and the club finesse later failed they would go Down a trick losing two Trumps and a trick in each minor suit. The Pessimist would take a far dimmer View of the hand. He would presume that he was going to lose the club finesse. Since the Ace of Dia monds was a sure loser he would see that he had to limit his Trump losers to one to bring Home his contract. After winning the Queen of hearts this Declarer s first move would be to Lead a Low Trump from hand. If West produced a Trump Declarer would simply cover As cheaply As possible. If that trick were taken by East that would mean that Trumps were no worse than 3-1 and the Ace King would pick up the outstanding pieces. As the cards lie when West shows out on the first Trump Declarer rises with Dummy s Ace and returns the Jack. After East covers Declarer wins the King and continues with a Trump to the nine. East scores his ten but Declarer can draw the last Trump and try the club finesse for an Over trick. The Gray cells give the answer East West vulnerable. West deals.

He would have made a great Bridge player for Sim ple deduction and logic often makes the game look easy. This hand was made for the thoughtful belgian. As played by most South s jump to three hearts was invitational. North reasoned that his partner probably held a Singleton club and judged that his prime controls in the Side suits and ruffing value in Dia monds merited going on to game. West led the King of clubs and East signalled with the eight. It was time for the opening Leader to take some time to consider what he knew about the hand. For his jump to three hearts Declarer surely held a Good six card suit and More Likely than not the King in his partners suit. And East had to have four clubs for his raise so Declarer was marked with a sin Gleton. Therefore the defenders had to take three tricks in the red suits and take them quickly if they were going to prevail. Since the Trump Ace was the Only fast trick West saw that his partner had to have the Queen of diamonds to give his Side a fighting Chance. So at trick two he shifted to the King of diamonds. Declarer grabbed the Ace and led a Trump. West won and continued with the Jack of Dia monds. East alertly overtook with the Queen to continue the suit and West ruffed with the nine to admin ister a one trick set. While we Salute the defense Declarer should have made his con tract. All he needed to do was hold up the Ace of diamonds for one round.
