PHI WEST Opening lo two of dia monds defender is entitled to make certain assumptions about the placement of the missing cards In the two concealed hands He does not see his partners or the declarers hand during the play but he is nevertheless ob iiged to assume at least ten atively the location of some of he missing key cards it would be foolish for him to assign to declarer cards that ender the contract impregna iie if it is at all possible for ris partner to have them To he contrary defender nor rnolly plays on the basis that sis partnen has the highmed Itreflgihofdlslrlhutlon that will BECKER Here is case to illustrate the point The contract is four spades and at leads dis mond East takes the ace and the question is what he should return at trick two The proper return is the four of hearts Before going into the reasons for this play lets first examine its effect West plays the king and dummy wins with the ace It does not much matter what declarer does next because he can no longer make the hand But assume that he leads the queen of spades and takes finesse West wins with the king returns heart and de clarergoes downnne If East makes any lead other than low heart at trick two South makes the contract Easts goal at the start of the play is to try to win four tricks forJhe defense In attempting to meet this aim he cannot af ford to credit South with the king of hearts because with that card placed in declarers band it becomes practically im possible for the defense to take four tricks Hence heart return by East isa mustplay which is based on the assumption that West has the king East can only hope that West hasa tmmp trick in addition to the king of hearts and that the heart re turn will result in declarers de ea Dn Mondayi Anothcr Famous cad to declarers
