Not just in the but in several european countries and recently in Asia the women a Star also is on the Rise of you were to ask us who we think is the greatest woman player of All time however our vote would go to the Alim Chorine in the Broadway production of the Marx Brothers animal Cracker who As Helen Sobet paired up with Charles Goren to become one of the most feared partnerships of the 1940s and 1950s. If Helen a bidding was a Little eccentric at times it Only added to the problems her opponents had when they played against her. Technical a she was Superb and could Manu factors tricks out of thin air. Here san example of her style from a match Point pair event at the 1934 fall nationals. Helen and her partner reached five clubs in an accurate if unscientific manner. It did have the advantage of revealing nothing about her holding. There was no problem making ii tricks but since this was duplicate Ove Tricka were important. Without a moments hesitation Helen played a Low Spade from Dummy at trick one. This play could not Cost since a Diamond loser could always be discarded later on a High Spade. As Helen expected East a Queen won and the Jack of diamonds was fired a King won the Ace was cashed and Trumps were drawn in two rounds. The Ace and King of Spades were cashed for a Diamond discard a Diamond was ruffed in the closed hand and when the suit split. Evenly the hoards Trump was the entry for Declarer to pitch her losing heart on the 13th Diamond. The Over trick netted a top score. A neither vulnerable As South you hold 49 9653 9a108764 4aq5 partner opens the bidding with one no Trump. What do you respond you have so Many cards in the minors partner s values rate to be in the majors so done to bother looking for a minor suit contract. Bid three 00 Trump at the table South jumped to three diamonds North raised and the final contract was five diamonds. The defenders cashed the Ace King of hearts and Ace of Spades and the same 10 tricks were available at no Trump. Q., a neither vulnerable As South. You hold a 4k1054 9a10 0q1073 4k105 your right hand opponent opens the bidding with one club. What action do you take your club and heart holdings been reversed we would suggest a takeout double.

Although there is a known eight card fit in the major we would opt for three no Trump because half our strength is in the undid suit.
