Inc trumps out Of the way, with two in his
own hand to stop the clubs, at some tables
dummy led the spade queen to clear the way
Tor the king; at others dummy started on the
diamonds. Either continuation leads to the
same situation. When the spade queen was
led A let it hold
The lead of high diamond dropped the
jack Now we come to the parting of the
ways. Those who took it for granted that this
was false card and went right along with
another high diamond put all hope of going
game behind them, as three by cards is now the
limit of possibility
To the careless player it looks as if the dia-.
monds ought to drop, because if they do four
trumps, five diamonds, club and a spade is
flve-odd. The point they overlook is that il
the diamonds do not drop two of them will
never make and the count will then be four
trumps, three diamonds, one club and one
spade, which is only three-odd
Only two players refused to take the chance
for the one extra trick that they would make
if the diamonds dropped The extra trick was
worth eight points only If the diamonds did
not drop the two tricks that would be dropped
would oe worth l41 points Ga game being
worth 125 points in duplicate matches).
II the dlamoeds are not split, game is still
certainty if small diamond is led for the
second round, allowing either adversary to win
the trick 1T is with this possibility in mind
that neither OF these two careful PLAYERS

1t. But if the fincsse stood to win more than a
trick and could not lose more it should always
be made .
One may see any number of games thrown
away by taking chance on fnesse that
stood to lose more than it could win, when the
game was certainty by refusing the possibil-
lty of one extra trick that finesse would
yield; or, very frequently, the finesse could
just as we'll have been postponed until after
the tricks necessary to win the game were
safe at home.
The same fault may often be observed in
plays that have nothing to do with fnessng
There are many hands in which players will
deliberately swap certainty for game to get
an extra trick, in spite of the fact that the
trick they are fishing for is worth only eight
or ten points, while the one they may lose is
worth either 1876 or 26O: -
