Winning Contract By Beware at World Championship 1986

Avarelli and Hamman defended aggressively, using a takeout double and an exclusion bid to reveal short suits. Despite warnings, the defense yielded only 1,200 points 15 IMPs for the pair, while the Italians’ contracts showed decisive play and strong partnership.
