Collapsing hand and digs into a fateful diamond play
A hand from a bridge column describes South misreading a diamond defense after a spade opening. East signals with diamonds as dummy, a club finesse fails, and the hand collapses as East wins four diamonds. The piece also notes Damascus chatter and a chateau demolition by the Marquis de Matisabre before a wordy puzzle section.
