This really juicy deal is
courtesy ‘Apro’ dara. It’s a
new year gift for all of us!
The declarer has four losers, a
spade, a heart, a diamond and
a club. He hopes one finesse
should work. How could South
reach dummy to finesse any?
Declarer should win ♦J with
♦A and cash a second
diamond. Then he should play
the ♦Q and discard a club
from dummy. East would ruff
and would shift to ♣9. South
should rise with ♣A and play
his ♦2, discarding a second
club from dummy when West
wins. Now nothing can stop South from ruffing ♣Q in
dummy safely and then being
able to take the winning
spade finesse.
Declarer has no choice, East
would have never led away
from ♣K, so that finesse
would have doomed. The only
access to dummy was via
the club ruff, so taking the
free club finesse is a losing
proposition on both counts.
A polish bridge player went to
apply for a driver’s license but
first, of course, he had to take
an eyesight test. the optician
showed him a card with the
letters: c Z W i X n o s t A c Z
“can you read this?” The
optician asked. “Read it?” The
polish guy replied, “I know the
guy, he plays bridge.
