South won the opening diamond
lead and led trump. A minute or
so later he had given up a trump. a
diamond and = heart and was
scoring 160 points below the line
and the rubber bonus Of 500 points
above the line. My partner and I
were not watching him as he added
up the scores: we were too busy in
sulting each other.
Nov that it's all over, however,
we'd like to know which of us was
to blame for. the bad result. Was
the double Of three spades good,
tolerable. poor or horrible? Assum-
ing that West relied on the double
of three spades. did he then have q
good double Of four clubs?"
We're glad, to receive this type OF
question, since this is q situation
which often confronts bridge play
ers. In our opinion. West was very
much to blame for the poor result.
East's double Of three spades was
poor tactics. since East had no de-
fense against any other contract
and might better have passed In the
hope that three spades would be the
final contract. The double had the
very fortunate effect, however, of
soaring South away from three no
trump-which he would have bid, in
all probability, If East had passed.
But even If East's double Of three
spades had been as sound as the
Rock of Gibraltar, what could West
gain from doubling four clubs? Could
he seriously expect to defeat the
contract more than one trick. con-
sidering that his partner had been
unable to open the bidding? The
double could hardly gain more than
100 points, therefore, and stood to
lose game and rubber.
