bettors, intending to give each to the
winner. In one envelope was $144. A

maintains it was to s. The difference
is only $4, but ] wish to know how to
decide such disputes.-T. McB
Answer-There is nothing to dispute
about. Each bettor gets half, as the
game was draw. The one who laid
odds on Harvard was betting that Har-
ward had more than an even chance, in
which the Result showed that he was
wrong, SO he loses. half of the odds that
he puts up. Each man takes down S72,

School for Card Plavers
POKER


Question-We are playing deuces
Wild, each man having started with the
same quantity of chips, and no one hav-
ing bought more, when, after half an
hours play, it is found that one pack
contains five aces and five deuces. The
other pack is correct. A bets that all
chips should be returned and the play
ers start over. But what about the deals
played with the correct pack ?-B. NJ.
Answer-Only the deal in which the
imperfect pack is discovered is void, and
then only if the discovery is made before
the last card is dealt for the draw. No
matter how strong the presumptive
evidence may be that the pack has been
imperfect since the play began, it is
impossible to prove it, and it would be
folly to leave the way open for an un-
scrupulous player, who was away be-
hind, to make a pack imperfect, SO as to
retrieve his losses.

Many foreign-born women who
had married Americans didn't know
that they were citizens by marriage
and had to be convinced that they
could vote. Few voters of either
sex were definite on the length of
time they had lived in the state, the
county or the election district. Usu-
ally we had completed the record
before we discovered that the reg
istrant had not completed the resi-
dence requirement for the election
district. We noted also that Ger

Z OF this series Of articles, leading
from the ace to the queen, instead
of trying to get dummy in to lead
the queen to the ace Of spades. The
object is not only to make two
spade tricks if the king is on the
right of the queen, but it is to get
dummy into the lead, so as to give

AS the diamond fnesse settles the
game, it must be made, and as soon
as dummy gets in and makes the
spade tricks the queen of diamonds
must be allowed to ride, and the
next round makes the jack or ace,
according to what Z has left. In
the actual game A passed up the
spade and let the queen win, with
his clubs still controlled by the de-
clarer. This made it easy for Z. as
he could not lose the game, even if
he lost the diamond fnesse.

given last week. in which hearts

New-York tribune., 1920-11-14


WA fails to win the first trick
' with q high card he can
still indicate to his partner
the combination from which he led
as soon as he gets in again. Having
led the king from king, queen, jack,
for instance, and lost the first trick
to the declarer's ace, if he regains
the lead he should follow the rule
about telling his partner somethine'
the partner does not know. The
lead of the king has marked him
with the queen. The second lead
of the jack tells the partner some
thing more.
While these may seem unimpor-
tant matters to some people, who
imagine it does not matter much what
they lead, as long as they win the
trick, it may make quite difference
to the partner if he is warned in
advance that he will have to discard
several times or only once. The
certainty Of having two successive
dlscards may change his entire plan,
as we shall see in future articles on
discarding.
Having led the ace from any COM
bination, the king is denied. The
proper continuation from A O j is
the queen, and from A j 10 is the
Jack. If there were not three honors
in the suit the card to follow the
ace should be q small one. With g
good partner the fourth best is con-
ventional, such as ace and then five
from A 10 S 2.
1T is seldom that a queen will hold
the first trick unless the partner has
one or both the higher honors. If
1t does, and the king is in the
dummy, the next lead should be the
jack, if the lead was from queen,
jack and others. If it was from @ ]
10, the second lead should be the ten.
II the king is not in dummy, partner
must have ace or king or both, and
the second lead should be a small
card, especially if the lead is from
queen, jack, without the ten.
Playing against a no-trumper. q
good partner, holding ace king and
only one small card, should be on
the alert to get out of the way of
what is probably long suit by Civ
ing up the king on the first trick,
returning the ace and then the
small one. Failure to do this may
lose tricks in several ways when
playing no-trumpers. Here is a hand

dummy getting in trump. z criticizes
this as bad play. If so, why, and what

Answer-Much depends on whether or
not there appears to be a better chance
by leading through dummys strong
suit, and so giving partner q chance to
come up to dummy's weakness, if Y
has any cards he might save, such as
guarded king. The bad play would be to
let dummy make trump when the de-
clarer could get discard at the same
time; but if the declarer can follow
suit to hearts when dummy trumps, no
particular harm is done, as it is evident
that the declarer himself could lead the
heart for dummy to trump the moment

Answer-The first consideration should
always be to save the game When the
same trick that saves the game also sets
the contract, all consideration of ten
aces should be thrown aside, and the
essential trick secured. A is correct.
The only lead, with three tricks in, was
the ace of clubs.
