dummy with the diamond king and lead a trump for a finesse or if con vinced that west has the king lead the trump queen from his hand the reason is simple dummy has two trump one must be kept temporarily to ruff spades if west wins the first trump lead and leads a spade it can be ruffed in dummy if east overruffs so can declarer the trump could be split 33 in that case west might refuse the first lead declarer can then take the ace and lead a third round if it should turn out that west has four trump to king then all we can say is that declarer did the best he could in all cases declarer must lose the first trump in order to win the con tract last week at the acton bridge club we had an individual move ment the winner was mrs gloria coats with art norris second and jack coats
