Against four hearts West opened
the diamond ace and continued.
South won, then played dummys
two top trumps. Being afraid that
West could trump a diamond, de
clarer decided to play the ace Of
clubs, then trump a club This, Of
course, stopped Vests ruff. Now
South had to use up his last two
hearts in order to exhaust trumps.
Next spade was led. West jumped
in with the ace and returned a club
"a club had been discarded from
dummy. East then ran three club
tricks and the contract was set two.
South'S anxiety to draw his op-
ponents' trumps was responsible for
his defeat. After cashing dummy's
two trumps he should have played
a spade. Then If by some chance
East held the ace, he could return
diamond and give his partner 4 run.
This would prevent South from
scoring an overtfick, but we think
it would be well worth while since
the four-heart contract would then
be absolutely safe.
