Had this hand turned up in a game of Kitchen Bridge Declarer would have had to go to the Bank to negotiate a loan. Fortunately for South it was dealt in a High level game at a renowned Bridge club. In Light of the opening bid South decided that an 11-trick contract would be beyond the reach of the North South assets and the Best Hope for a game was at three no Trump. Accordingly South sup pressed the Diamond suit and pressed on to three no Trump then opted to stick it out after West doubled. West led the King of Spades and Declarer was not impressed with the chances of Landing the contract. With East marked for heart length West a double strongly suggested stoppers in both minor suits. It looked like an 1,100-Point penalty in the offing. Declarer decided to resort to guile. Since the Long Diamond suit had been concealed in the bidding Declarer won the Ace of Spades and immediately led the Jack of diamonds from hand. Now we All know that had Cousin Augustus been our opponent West would have grabbed the Queen of diamonds and a Cascade of Spades would have followed. But our expert West was above that. The defender allowed for the possibility that East had started with a Singleton Spade and that to win and continue Spades would set up a trick for Declarer. In any Case it did not seem vital to win the Diamond either East would win and have a Spade to return or else East would shift to a club. There would be time later to take the Spades winners. West ducked and the roof fell in. Declarer rattled off six Diamond tricks and two hearts making three Odd doubled. Q.
