Jacoby On Bridge Build an Odd Rubber Tale
In this rubber bridge session Oswald and James Jacoby describe a hand where South, long on bad cards, endures hostile play from East and West. A three club cue leads to a tense finish as South ruffs diamonds and queens spades, while East refuses to employ a 10 of clubs. The position centers on a late tenace and a partner’s five spades cue, with the puzzle of the correct next move posed for tomorrow.
