THAT was a lovely feeling to
hear the first cuckoo call early
morning the other day. They
say spring only truly arrives
when the first cuckoo call is
heard. This call can be so loud
and demanding too.
South’s preempt was
effective as the opponents can
make 11 tricks in either minorsuit contract. Yet, it was too
dangerous for either opponent
to bid.
Rather than pin all hopes
on the position of ♦A with
East, South should increase
his chances by developing the
spade suit. He should start by
discarding a spade on West’s
second high club.
West would shift to a heart
or a spade and South would
win Ace. South now can ruff
a spade back. A trump to
dummy’s ♥J lets South ruff
another spade to establish
the suit, and the rest was
easy. South would discard two
diamonds on dummy’s good
spades and the defense is
limited to only three tricks.
‘Sometimes giving someone
a second chance is like giving
them an extra bullet for their
gun because they missed you
the first time.
