In the bidding West did some very
edroit pushing" trying to get his
opponents beyond their depth.
While South could have doubled
his rash opponent and set him sew
eral tricks, he refused to sell his
hand.
Things proceeded well enough for
South up to certain point. West
opened the king of diamonds, and
after winning, South played c]''b
to dummy's queen. East won
trick with the club ace and returned
heart. Now South laid down the
king of spades. West won and re-
turned a heart, hoping his partner
could trump South next played
the queen of spades, and when the
jack dropped drew Vests remain
ing trump with his ten This last
play cost South the hand, for he
had neglected to guard against
the bad division of the club suit
When the king of clubs was played
and West showed out, South saved
something out of the wreck by play
ing another club, on which he dis
carded dummy's last heart. 1t was
now necessary for East to return a
diamond. on which South discard
ed a club. Vests queen won, but
this established the pack in dummy,
80 that South held the penalty
down to only one trick.
However, simple safety play
would have won the contract. After
dropping the spade jack, South
should have led a small trump to
dummy's nine. Next he should have
played a small club and flneSsed the
ten. If West held the pack. he
would win this trick, but would take
no more and, as the cards were
distributed, the finesse would have
worked and South, by playing safe
for his contract, would have made
an overtrick.
