West led the king Of clubs and
shifted to the heart Jack. South
won with the ace and led the spade
queen. West stayed OF for . cou-
pie OF rounds but won the third
spade lead, cashed his club ace
and led the heart ten. Declarer took
the trick and drew Vests last
trump while entering dummy with
the spade king. Then he led the
diamond queen. But East refused
to cover, and, after taking a Sec
ond diamond 1inesse, South plunked
down the diamond ace. The king
didn't drop, and, as witness her let
ter, neither did Norths temperature.
North already has put the criminal
on the spot, but can you spot the
crime?
It was hard luck for South to
and all the trumps In one hand
and East with q diamond king that
wouldn't drop. South couldn't help
the trump break, but he was guilty
Of manhandling the diamonds.
Dummy's first lead should have
been the diamond nine. When It
held, he could lead the queen next
time and keep the lead in dummy
for q third finesse II necessary. But
by leading the queen first he had
been unable to hold the second trick
In dummy and had limited himself
to two diamond illnesses instead Of
the three he needed.
