The rule Is this: When a fourth best card Is led

the remainder will be the number Of higher out

.tIs EXAMPLE-If your partner leads the eight sub
tracing it from eleven leaves three there but
three cards higher than the eight outside Of your
partners hand; if dummy holds and you hold the
other two or If he holds two and you have the third
and he does cover, you need not cover either;
all three cards better than the eight in sight, fourth
hand can have none, and your partners card must
win the trick.
The Rule Of Eleven is especially valuable upon the
