East ducked and so did South, and when West failed to follow, the whole story was told. It was easy to pick up the trumps, and lose only the heart king, but with out the double the task would have proved difficult if not im- possible.

The doubler, by plac- ing key cards. is no better off with a set of one doubled than he would have been with set of two un- doubled. He is, of course, much worse off if his double helps the de- clarer to such an extent that he makes a contract that would other wise almost inevitably have been de- feated.
