Pressure Play Bridges Surfer's Paradise Congress Deal
At the Surfer's Paradise Congress on the Gold Coast last February, East Ashley Bach faced a tricky opening by North's two diamond cue bid promising majors. Grosvenor, representing Australia, won with dummy's ace and led a series of diamonds and clubs as Bach tried to force a discard. East ruffed in early to foil a heart-clearing plan, leaving the tale a study in pressure plays at the bridge table.
