A mixed page shows a word puzzle glossary with clues from across and down, plus a Canasta reader inquiry. It recounts a game scenario where players discuss discards, melds, and strategy, including questions on whether to meld fours and complete the canasta and how to meld out quickly.
The article discusses a bridge hand where West misfired and six clubs would have been set if not for a poor choice. It argues players guess at contracts under pressure, notes North’s strong club holding and South’s three clubs opening, and suggests North should jump to five clubs to force defense and secure a clear play.
From Miami, where a major bridge tournament is held all week, a reader asks to critique the bidding of a hand. The four players are retired businessmen, and the author notes their nonexpert status while aiming to play seriously. The hand features a six-diamond contract that South is bound to win two.
