Pass OH Pass Pass
OS Double Pass Pass

West's Opening bid might be ques-
tioned at rubber bridge, being slightly
weak in honour tricks, but this nand
should be opened in a duplicate game.
The next two bids are especially im-
portant,
The Takeout Double is one of the
most profitable bids in 'bridge, when
properly used, and such a valuable
weapon should not be neglected. In
this hand; if North makes the inade-
quate overcall of two clubs, East and
West will eventually play the hand at
four or five spades and the small pen-
alty will give them a top score.
Likewise East's double jump raise
to four spades is very sound, and in
# this case it is vitally important. It
warns West that lie • spade suit is
worthless defensively, and it is the ba-
sis for his sacrifice bid of six spades.
Without this jump bid by East, West
might double six hearts, as actually
happened at three 'tables,
