the defense any easier The times that you know are the times when your partner has no high at all Here Is an from Inst week at the Acton Bridge Club North dealt with NorthSouth vulnerable L et Play B dge by b coats s a a ii k Personally I would open South hand one no trump It is balanced and contains 16 high card points However the sequence at the table was interesting especially after West bid no trump and then North South played the hand in three no trump West can be almost positive that his partner has no high card points South has bid strongly North came into the auction freely at the two lew Is The entire defence up to West the bidding indicated the best opening lead Looks it over On the heart leid dummy contributed the nine covered with the ten nd declarer won deciding how to play the hand West was looking at his hand and at dummy Wist knew that his partner could not help Past hold Hint would do any good Since had opened with one diamond declarer probably did not have four Therefore Fast should have five hearts or and If one of them was the eight maybe the defense could do something Declarer decided to tackle the club suit first West ducked once but had to win the second lead West lead the heart and after brief hesitation declarer Declarer ran off his three club tricks West discarded three spades and Fast ported with two diamonds and a spade Notice that East on to every heart that he held Cashed la Declarer had to lead a spade and West won with the ace He eashed the heart queen and lead the seven to his partner East overtook with the eight and took the setting trick with his last heart If all this looks easy tell me how come three declarers made ten tricks with the North Southwards at no trump Only one declarer was set on the defense described here
