1rtdy Outlook op Lifesty gg Motherinlaw turns mean on son James Everyones blind spot By James When you have nothing but winners outside of the trump suit you will probably feel an inexorable urge to draw trumps Immediately That is a good plan as far as it goes But If you first ask yourself what the defenders are trying to do you may be able to block their strategy When today deal was played at a tournament those declarers who won the opening diamond lead and immediately played trumps met an early demise East won the spade ace and returned a diamond When West got on lead with his spade king he led a heart to his partner ace and got a diamond ruff to set the contract One declarer played a heart right away but Last won returned a and played a third diamond for the ruff a winning the spade ace At another table declarer tried to avoid the third round diamond ruf by taking a club finesse That resulted In down two The obvious play seemed to strike everyone blind spot Of course it was right to lead a heart at the second trick After East led the second dla all that was required was for declarer to win that diamond in his hand and play the of hearts carding both diamonds from dummy Now declarer can lead the jack of spades from his hand with Impunity The third diamond cannot be ruffed by West since It will be by the dummy queen of trumps DEAR MEG Mails mother seemed to like me but
