West s double of five Spades was More to prevent East from bidding on than from any conviction that five Spades could be Defeated. Most declares would have gone Down a trick losing a trick in each Plain suit. West led a heart East Rose with the Ace and returned the suit for Declarer to Ruff. In an Effort to sneak a trick through Declarer immediately led a Low club but East Rose with the Ace and returned the King of hearts Declarer ruffing again. At this Point a less imaginative Declarer would draw Trumps ending in Dummy discard two Diamond on the King and Queen of clubs and eventually concede a Diamond for Down one. Not our hero South cashed the Ace of Trumps and crossed to Dummy a Queen drawing West a Trumps As East discarded two hearts. Instead of cashing the King and 3ueen of clubs immediately for two Iamond discards then surrender ing a Diamond for Down one Declarer played another Trump. West discarded a Diamond and East parted with the 13th heart. Declarer decided to go for broke risking a two or three trick set for the Chance of making the contract. Declarer led Dummy a last Trump overtook with the King in hand leaving the High clubs stranded in Dummy then ran three More Spade winners. Neither defender thought that Declarer would abandon two sure winners without another club in hand. Both defenders therefore Felt it incumbent to cling to All three clubs in hand so each came Down to three clubs and a Singleton Diamond. The Ace of diamonds crashed the remaining two diamonds in the East West hands and Declarer a j 5 3 in the suit took the last three tricks the threat of the squeeze was As powerful As the squeeze itself. Q. A East West vulnerable As South you hold �T�85 aqj7632 0aj93 void the bidding has proceeded West North East South pass pass pass 1 9 pass 1 a pass ? what do you bid now the same hand As before except that your Black suit holdings have been reversed. But now you can expect partner to cover a loser or two. So we think the holding is Worth a jump to four hearts. Q a neither vulnerable As South you hold �T�7 9kqj9852 9953 102 partner opens the bidding with one Spade. What do you respond is a question of whether to jump to four hearts to Tell partner you want to play it right there or to adopt a slower approach. Since the hand contains seven losers stir Choice is to respond two hearts intending to make minimum heart bids at each subsequent turn. I a i # Jim Iii ii w.

Since we do not like hanging partner for competing at the one level end have a terrible holding in diamonds we think the invitational raise is sufficient. Q. A East West vulnerable As South you hold �T�j76 9q72 0kq5 k854 the bidding has proceeded North East South West 1 Pasa ? what do you bid now you were a passed hand a jump to two no Trump despite the the Lack of a sure Spade stopper would be your most descriptive bid. Since you Arentt Strong enough for that bid As an a passed hand we suggest a Tempo izing bid of one Diamond to elicit a rebid from partner. Q. A As South vulnerable you hold �T�ak106 9aj4 08 aj1097 the bidding has proceeded South West North East 1 a pass 1 9 pass ? what do you bid now opposite a shaded response you have enough to insist on game.
