Spades doubles-a ridiculous contract in a masterful display by Dick Kahn, Masters Pair Champion and multiple national titleholder. West led the king of hearts, Kahn ruffed, cashed clubs, and used spades to ruff, building nine tricks before the queen of spades in dummy doomed West. Neat yet gaudy, the play showcases precision in a high stakes puzzle.
Oswald Jacoby analyzes a bridge hand where the KING of CLUBS looms oddly for Dick Kahn. The dialogue covers a strange bidding sequence including a two spade raise and a four spades jump, with reflections on trump length and expected cards. The column reflects on card logic and player perception in bidding choices.
Oswald Jacoby addresses a Henderson reader asking whether a recent canasta scenario is legal. A partner with nine, seven, six, five and deuce values faced a discard pile where taking the top five after discarding all cards raised the question of melding out. The column asserts the play was legal and proper and discusses how discard pile top cards factor into a hand.
