Many rubbers at auction are literally
wasted through poor judgment in doubling
with strong hand. instead of taking a

Here Is hand held in actual play that
clearly marks the line between the two

, with one weak spot in an otherwise
strong hand, 1t would be wise to declare
no trump or pass on the expectancy of a
game hand at clubs, which his strong
supporting hand in combination with
strength in trumps shown by his partner 3

Fortified by the knowledge of South's
reliability in bidding on tops" at origi-
nal declaration, North was sure OF a
solid club suit either at no trump. il
played by him, or at clubs, by his part

would hinge upon the trick taking value
of hearts and spades in North's hand. II
either one Of these suits should be led to

solid diamond suit against a no trump

WHERE THE WEAKER SUIT WON

Allowing the weak suit make to stand
with excellent support to the make that
promises game without the risk attendant
upon a singleton, although not a difficult
deduction, is constantly overlooked at
auction. Such overlooking is often due TO
lack of faith in a partners reliability, and
with that element of doubt once raised II
IS very hard to remove and puts a heavy
toll OH good team work.
Here is q hand that illustrates the point:

Strong Hands Rather than
Weak Ones Prove Fertile
Ground for Errors at
Auction Bridge.

The rule of percentage demonstrates
that more errors at auction are commit
ted in the play Of strong hands than weak
hands.
All hands at auction are unusual, and
the theories apply to types rather than
20 concrete holdings. Freak hands come
I'D occasionally that test ones ability to
recognize the exception and apply the
proper action.
The hands held from day TO day in
actual play that go under the knife in real
combat undoubtedly present the better
material for clinical analysis and discus
sion than freak hands. Hands in actual
play necessarily better represent the aver
ace holding and faults of omission and
commission. The manufactured hand may
illustrate 4 point, but generally contains
some latent weakness unexposed by lack
Of the human test in actual play.
VALUE OF "SEVENTH SENSE"
Answering a reader, we offer the above
reasons for using hands held in actual
play in various contests and club games.
OF course, there are many mechanical
holdings that are automatic in play. II one
has the sense TO avoid revoking. leading
out Of turn or committing some other
faux pas equally foolish. Auction is i
wonderful game Of wide range. and
brings into action all Of ones mental
faculties and often the seventh sense"
usually designated as common sense.
Good play Of poor hands saves and
wins many rubbers. but it's the average
strong hand that trips the player. for the
very reason that il is more often played
and usually at a high contract that car
rie. big loss or gains on the play. and
hence requires the utility OF utmost
strength.
