! WHEN SAFETY is SILLY

CASTING THE winning trick,
which gives you your contract, is
usually plain ordinary common
sense when trying for an extra
or two would risk the contract.
But haven't you seen situations in
which you can go for the extra
or extras without any danger at
all? OF course you have. In those
cases the taking OF the immediate
game trick is silly, II 1t means
giving up hope Of extras which
