Feel of the table helps bridge players win under pressure
The column discusses the expert trait of a player who senses opponents' cards and optimal sacrifice. It recounts North's strategic decisions in a rubber bridge hand, including opening with a singleton spade, underleading diamonds, and shaping defense to thwart a heart game. It ends with a standard bidding question: with four good hearts, bid three spades to invite no trump or settle for the cheapest contract.
