North dealer, North and South vulnerable. A NONE 3 O. j 5 3 2 • K j 9 8 5 3 4, 10 A Q 10 9 6 A K 5 4 2 3 8 A 10 9 # NONE "„ • 642 • KO j 8642 A 953 * A 8 7 8 -K 7 6 4 • A 10 7 41. A 7 North has a close decision in select- ing his opening bid, Not vulnerable, five diamonds would have been the definite choice, but being vulnerable this bid is about half a trick above the. safety zone. On the other hand, his own very wild distribution sug- gests that four diamonds is unlikely to shut out the opponents. In view of this, the slight danger involved in opening with five diamonds would seem to be warranted. If North bids five diamonds, South's vulnerable raise to six is routine. With an opening bid of four it is a lttle more difficult to reach six, and probably in some cases the way was eased by West making a competing bid of six clubs. Certainly there is no criticism of West's overcall of six clubs. The point is that he shouldn't have stopped there, It was more important to out- bid the slam than the game contract. Let us reason the point. At seven clubs West could lose four tricks (700 points doubled) at the worst. For this to happen North and South would need the A K of spades, theAce of hearts and the Ace of clubs. With all those cards together with North's powerful diamond suit and the ob- viously erratic distribution, surely the diamond slam would almost be a cer- tainty. If East held just one of the key cards mentioned then the Penalty at seven clubs would be too small to justify allowing North and South to make even a vulnerable game, and to risk an opposing slain under such a condition should be unthinkable.
