Take Out Insurance in Rubber Bridge Strategy
Barclay argues that securing the contract in rubber bridge is more crucial than chasing every possible trick. Pursuing too many tricks can introduce unnecessary risk, so players should insure the main contract even at the expense of a potential extra trick.
Grand slam chances in a tough bridge hand
In a North dealer no-trump context with North-South vulnerable, the laziest line fails. West leads heart six, declarer sees breaks in hearts diamonds spades and aims for clubs, but four-two diamond split and a nonworking club finesse doom the contract. Best play would have been a safety finesse then testing suits. once spades and diamonds misfire, the contract becomes hopeless unless East holds both clubs and errs.
