The contract was four hearts by South at all tables. There is scope for several fine plays in this hand, by both the declarer and the defenders, ' The declarer needs to win two club tricks. This will be easy if he can in- duce the defender to "break" the club suit for hint ' but his' chances are con- siderably reduced if lie has to open the suit himself. If he leads clubs, his best percentage play would be to lead a small one up to the King, and in this hand that play would fail. To encourage the defence to lead clubs the declarer makes an ,elimina- tion and end play, After playing two. rounds of trumps, he clears spades from both his hands, trumping the six in dummy, cashes the ace of diamonds and then leads the diamond jack. East should avoid winning this trick,. as the next lead would 'embarrass him very much. He should realize that West most hold the queen, because if South held that card he would have played the suit for a finesse, On winning the diamond trick, West has a real problem. An expert would return a diamond, presenting declarer with a ruff and a -discard. In this rare instance it would defeat the. contract (except against double-dum- my play), but such a lead is abhotent to the average player, usually rightly so, If West is an ordinary 'mortal he will return a club, and South will feel well rewarded for his careful play of the hand.
