Spectacular swing in 1970 world bridge match part score
In a 1970 world championship bridge deal, two related tables produced contrasting outcomes. Taiwan North-South reached two spades, West led a heart, and the contract finished with ten tricks for 170 points. At the second table the bidding sparked a takeout double, a redouble, and a dramatic score of 1510 points from a two diamonds doubled contract as South overcalled and West passed.
