Bridge expert Jacoby explains a three no trump safety play using the ace of clubs as insurance when holding ace and queen with no value from other suits. If the king drops, the finesse works. if not, the queen still makes with the king forced. The article notes the method leads to four no trump and planning for ten tricks, plus a plug for Jacoby and his son Jim’s booklet Win At Bridge with mailing details.
