Expert Bridge Hand Baffles Four Spade Bid To Make
In a tense all expert rubber bridge contest South sacrificed to four spades after a one spade bid, got doubled by Hast, and faced a complex run of plays. West opened with ace of hearts, continued with queen, South ruffed, led diamonds, and carefully assessed East’s possible holdings as the hand evolved. East’s dubious king of diamonds decision and a dramatic ace of diamonds vs king drop shaped the critical moments.
