Bridge TM By Steven Becker
In a bridge column Steven Becker previews a play from the NORTH hand with both sides vulnerable, starting with the bid and opening lead ideas to guide readers through the hand. The fragment notes tactical considerations and potential outcomes for the bridge fans.
A Hard Hopeful Line in Six Diamonds
In a bridge deal from a 1962 page, South reaches six diamonds after a spade lead and heart and club play. The text analyzes two lines of play, comparing the declarer's chosen method with a superior approach using a heart finesse toward dummy. The better line yields the slam about half the time, while the original path loses one club trick more often.
