opening lead: King OF spades.
West followed this ancient
but diScredited theory by lead
ing the king Of spades. 1t was
a book" opening lead, but it
gave South the contract.
South ruffed, cashed the ace
OF clubs, and ruffed a club in
dummy. He got back to his
hand with the king of dia-
monds, ruffed a club with the
jack Of hearts, and returned
dummy's last trump to force
out the ace.
West could get the ace of
hearts and one club trick. but
nothing else. South therefore
made his doubled game con-
tract.
/ Should Lead Trump
The bidding indicated that
South had a freakish two
suiter in hearts and clubs.
Vests best chance to protect
his club tricks was to draw
dummy's trumps.
West should open the ace of
hearts and continue with a low
trump. South can ruff only one
club in dummy and must
therefore lose two clubs In ad-
dition to the ace Of trumps.
The sensible way to pick an
opening lead is to listen to the
bidding and choose the right
suit. There's no advantage to
making the right lead in the
wrong suit.
Daily Question
AS dealer, you hold:
AAKJs 0As6 u93 Ak Q1O2
What do you say2
Answer: Bid one club. You
have an easy rebid in spades,
and then you can see what to
do next. An opening bid of one
no-trump is undesirable be-
cause of the worthless double
ton in diamonds.
