One of the
important festivals, Ganesh Chathurthi, was celebrated throughout India on
Thursday with a great devotion. This day
is celebrated as birthday of Lord Ganesha, the elephant-headed son of Lord Shiva
and Goddess Parvati. Lord Ganesha is the
symbol of Wisdom, prosperity and good fortune. South played today’s game in a niggardly
way. And with his false economy, he managed to turn a makeable game into a losing
effort.West’s ♠K held, and West continued with the ♠4 after East had encouraged with the ♠8. East won the ♠A and
returned the ♠3, and defenders had the first
four tricks. West exited with a heart. South allowed dummy’s ♥K to hold and thereby fell from grace. When no singleton ♦K appeared, South was forced to concede down one. South had his eyes
on the wrong goal. True, he would have had nine tricks had he won the ♥A and ♥K separately.
However, since there was no reasonable way to achieve that end without the loss
of another trick. South should have ‘wasted’ his ♥A in trade for an entry to his hand. When West shifted to a heart
at trick five, South should have overtaken dummy’s ♥K with his ♥A and tried the diamond finesse. When the finesse succeeds South collects
two diamond winners, Just enough to score his game.
