internat- tonal fund game- was sponsor ed by the georgetown bridge club thirty pairs of bridge players came to the game at georgetown the winners were- jack coats of alderwood and kay harmerof oakville these fund games are con ducted on a continent wide basis with the same hands be- ing played all over north am erica the results from george town will be sent in and over all winners will be selected at the end of the playing ses sion every participant receiv ed a summary sheet prepared by a committee of experts in new york this summary gave suggested bidding and play on every hand so everyone could compare their results with the experts one hand where the local re- suits did not compare with the experts analysis is this one the dealer is east and neither side is vulnerable north s o 10 9 3 hj 6 3 dk 7 3 c 9 6 3 west east sj76 s a k 8 4 hq 4 h9 5 2 do 6 d 8 4 2 c kqjc74 c a 10 5 south ssj a k 10 8 7 dra j 10 9 5 probable bidding east south west north pass 1h 3c pass pass 3d pass 3h all pass or east south west north pass 1h pass int pass 2d pass 2h pass 3h all pass it la not unlikely that east even with his three quick tricjks will open the bidding south should get to three or four hearts if east west ar rive at three spades or four clubs and get doubled they are in for a poor score west will lead the club king and will continue clubs south is in no hurry to take his tricks and should discard his spades on the club lead when east wins the third club he will try to cash hisospades but south will ruff when east leads the spade king he is almost mark ed with the ace as well if east has the aceking of spades and the ace of clubs then he cannot have a red queen this would have given him an opening bid declarer must play westforthe double- ton queen of trump and must finesse diamonds through west when this hand was played at georgetown only two dec larers out of 12 made ten tricks i imagine that most souths ruffed the second club and then could not get a count on easts hand it pay to watch what the opponents have in the way of high cards for this often helps place other cards that are still missing last weeks winners at the acton bridge club were first jack
