VERY once in while the fact
- that there are 635,0l3.559,6OO
possible combinations of 13
- cards is commented upon, but
we wonder how many OF our readers
have ever considered how many var1a-
tions there can be in bidding.
Let us suppose that South opens the
bidding with one club. The next play
.r may pass or double; he may bid one
two, three or four in one OF three
other suits, or one, two or three no.
trump. and he may bid two clubS-a
total of l8 possibilities right there.
Now we come to North, who Will
have from to Is bids at his disposal,
depending upon what West has done.
In turn. East will have plenty OF op-
tions. so that by the time South is
ready for his second bid, he may be
faced by any one of thousand differ
ent situations, and by the time 1t is
his turn for a third or fourth bid,
assuming that the bidding continues
that long, the possible variations may
we'll run into the millions.
Naturally no system can hope to
cover all these possibilities, nor can

any player, no matter how expert. be
right all the time in his bidding. We
find every player, from the worst up
to the greatest master, making mis-
takes that seem incredible when you
see all four hands.
Furthermore, there are frequent
problems in the various stages of the
bidding, to which there is no answer.
For instance, we recently had letter
from Alvin C. Mason of Chicago. a
leading bridge teacher and Four Aces
enthusiast, asking the correct bid in
the following situation:
Opponents are not vulnerable; your
side is vulnerable, and you hold:

n

You have sound opening one spade
bid and make it. Second hand passes
and your partner responds with one
notrump. Obviously. your hand is
decidedly unsuitable for notrump and
ordinarily you should rebid to two
spades and hope that your partner
will pass. But with this man, YOU
must pass his one notrump, because
if you bid two spades, he is almost
sure to bid either two or three no.

The opponent on your left opens
with one diamond: your partner
doubles, third hand bids heart, and
now the problem is what you should
bid
We give up. Obviously the hand is
so strong that a bid should be made.
and yet there is no bid which Is at all
satisfactory. We have shown the
hand to 20 or 30 leading players and
they all professed themselves stumped.
OF course. the hand is unusual, and
such situation might never arise
again, but how about this one? South
deals and bids one spade holding:

North responds with two hearts.
What is South's correct rebid? If
South were allowed to bid az spades,
the problem would be solved; other
wise, he must bid either two spades or
jump to three spades. If he bids two
spades only, partner will pass with a
weak hand. and in the event that the
partners weak hand Is something
like:

|. However, with this particular hand
we have a reasonably good answer,
which is: Your rebid should be based
| upon your partners temperament.
With a partner who is a distinct
underbidder. you must chance three
spades, while with pushing partner
two spades should suffice. But, of
course, if you happen to have an un-
known or inconsistent partner, you
might as well flip coin.
This last point about basing your
bid in a close situation upon your
knowledge of your partner is one of
the most important things in the
game of contract. Incidentally. in any
close-bidding situation 1t Is impoS-
sible for us. or any one else, to give
categorical answer as to what is
the correct bid, since no two bridge
players have the same temperament
or the same characteristics.
The winning player is versatile and
not only varies his bidding in order
to fit in with his partners, but also
varies it slightly in accordance with
his knowledge of the opponents.
OF course, in varying your bidding
you must be careful to let your partner
know that you are doing it. For in
stance, A and B, who are strangers,
are to play as partners in a bridge
game. Before play starts A says. Re
member. 1 am distinct overbidder."
B says, so am l." Nothing more
is said and each player now decides
that he will take care of his partners
overbids by underbidding himself. AS
result they miss game after game
and slam after slam. What they
should do is to go one step farther
and decide which one is to overbid
as he normally would and which one
is to underbid to counteract it.
When you get to know a player real
well you find out more about his bid
ding. For instance, there is one player
in New York who oyerbids all no.
trump hands as follows: If he is to be
declarer, it averages one to two tricks;
if his partner is to be declarer, 1t
averages half trick. But when the
contract is in suit, the same player
becomes conservative. Now suppose
that you are playing with this man
as partner and pick up the follow
ing hand:

An easy game will be lost. If South
jumps to three spades partner will
undoubtedly continue and game will
be reached. Now should partners
hand be something along the follow
ing lines:
