Risk worth taking beats contract in bridge analysis
The article explains strategic risk in defending a bridge contract. East’s play after the six of diamonds led to a defense that could beat four hearts, assuming West held the diamond queen. The risk was an overtrick if the queen was with declarer, a gamble worth taking to defeat the game. James Jacoby’s books on bridge and card games are now sold by Pharos Books.
