CONTRACT BRINE
A recent Bridge Club deal was only
a club finesse short of 1a grand slain,
but four out of eight pairs stopped at
game. From a study of the hand it
probably was West who erred in the

**Responses showing one ace and two,
kings respectively.
West's game-forcing- response of
th7ee hearts shows minimums of four
trump cards, 2% honour tricks and
five playing tricks, and this is a very
comprehensive and accurate descrip-
tion of his band. When a player is in
the fortunate position of being able,
to give his partner a great deal of in-
formation about his hand all wrapped
up in one . bid, any other bid is a very
shoddy substitute.
On the strength of West's three
hearts response, East could easily add
in his own 41/4 honour tricks and 7
playing tricks- and bid six hearts with-
out further ado. However,'the Bleck- . .
woods bids checked for sure that West
-Iliad at least two kings, and at the
same time investigated the possibility
of a grand slam contract,
It probably is an accurate surmise
that at all four tables where the bid-.
ding stopped at game, the first re-
sponse by West was two diamonds.
This should not have precluded the
slam, but it did make the bidding of
it somewhat more difficult. ,
