this device Of getting East to lead

study showed that the diamond
discard did him no good. He still

Debating this. he decided that
West. who had bid. was more
likely to hold the crucial card than
East. who had not bid. So ne

discarded a heart, and North now
knew East was sure to win with
his diamond @.
Simple card-counting could have
made this a sure thing. East's
fourth-best lead OF the heart 4
placed West with 6 hearts. West
had followed suit to 2 spades.
East's ruffing OF the second club
showed West had 4 there. Add 6

West could have had only one dia-
