Memory of George Arnott Inspires Chief Declarer Play
Last November 21 a Scotland letter arrived, offering two good declarer-play problems. Weeks later George Arnott died, prompting a memorial column. In a five spades deal South ruffing strategy leads to the safe trump endgame after West discards a heart. The correct line is to discard the heart queen at trick three and ruff low to draw trumps.
