The play of the first trick was
given yesterday, as follows:
Six of Clubs; Three of Clubs: Ten
of Clubs; Jack Of Clubs. Suppose
that we now place ourselves in the
position of the Declarer, not knowing J.
the location of the adverse cards, and
we can lose a finesse and still make
game, but it is impossible to win
game without risking a finesse.
There is just as much chance of win.
ming the Spade finesse as there is of
winning the Diamond finesse. There
has been no bidding and no indica-
ton of the location of either King;
but If the Spade finesse win, it would
make only three Spade tricks which,
in addition to the one Club tick al
ready won, two Heart tricks and the
Ace of Diamonds. would leave the
Declarer two tricks short of game;
and so after that, the Diamond fin.
esse would still have to be tried. To
risk an Intellectual finesse is doubl-

the Diamond finesse should be the

an adverse singleton King are very
great.
The Dummy should be put in with

Diamond finesse then tried, as in
the hand described earlier this week:
First lead Jack of Diamonds, on
which Closed hand plays the Ten;
seconds lead Nine of Diamonds, on
which Closed Hand plays the Eight;
third lead small Diamond, win with
the Queen; and then establish the
long Diamond and put Dummy in
with the Ace Of Spades; the nuuects-

risked as it is not needed for game

Next week we will have Dummy
