However. there are a number
Of things to remember which
will improve your defense game.
In yesterdays column I sug-
gested that you carefully avoid
making leads which are likely to
give declarer a clear picture Of
your hand.
Here is another gimmick.
When the situation seems hope
less for your side, try to visualize
a card or cards which your part
ner could logically be expected to
have and then play him for that
holding. Often this will involve
making q lead which you would
not dream of making in ordinary
circumstances. And, as always,
you should consider the hu-
manics angle.
Look at the sensational result
Mr.. Masters got in today's deal.
He took the first two tricks with
the king and ace Of clubs. It was
clear that another club lead
would be suicidal. Where were
two more tricks coming from?
There was probably one to be
had in diamonds but certainly
none in hearts. And that left the
spade suit.
Mr.. Masters knows that with
nine trumps, missing the queen.
Mr.. Abel favors laying down the
ace and king. In this case, that
would mean ruin for the defend
ers. There were four spades on
the board and, for his jump bid
in the suit. surely Mr.. Abel had
at least five.
But what if Mrs. Keen had the
Jack? Wouldn't a spade lead at
trick three be a mastery piece
Of miSdirection? Mr.. Masters
thought so. He led the six of
spades. Mrs. Keen played the
jack and Mr.. Abel won with the
king.
Thinking it over, Mr.. Abel fig
ured he had got a good break.
Clearly Mrs. Keen had started
with Q j 3 in spades. Mr.. Mas
ters couldn't have the queen.
(Who would be crazy enough to
lead away from the queen of
trumps?) ..~
So over to the board with the
ace of hearts and back with the
ten of spades. Mrs. Keen played
the trey and Mr.. Abel ducked.
