Bridge Aces By Bobby Wolff
Declarer wins the first diamond and considers drawing trumps. A 2-2 break will succeed. 3-1 requires guessing the singleton ace. If he leads trumps to the king, East's ace, West gains a trump, a spade, and a diamond, yielding one down. Is the natural line best or a safer alternate?
