Open no-trump play hinges on dummy and spade triple
In a three no-trump after West has a fourth highest spade South faces a plan to win five top tricks with two spades two hearts and one diamond. He must lead to dummy’s spade ace at trick one and then run clubs to avoid West’s entry while eliminating the spade menace. The pundit notes a quip about car doors and a chaotic echo of guiding principles in bridge discourse.
