Jacoby on Bridge Trump Lead Costs North South
In a bridge game North HAIES WAKES faced a sequence after the opening 1c pass 1a 2a 3a 5a 6a showing a strong bidding—the board features a trump lead by South and a costly line in the final contract. The play note highlights decision points around opening lead and card play in the auction.
Simple misplay costs slam in bridge puzzle
South could have made seven by trumping diamonds, clubs, and another diamond then drawing trumps and running diamonds, but miscounted. West ducked, East held the diamond ace, and South discarded a bad card, allowing West to spoil the par. The lone trump lead proved a luxury beyond South’s means.
