Summer Nationals Bridge Deal Defeats Five Hearts Contract
At the Summer Nationals in San Diego Blair Seidler of Fair Lawn NJ defended five hearts by ruffing with clever signaling and ruffs, countering East’s expected diamond ruff plan. West led diamonds as a heart signal, East overruffed, and Seidler later cruised to plus 1000 after precise ruffs and a key spade ace. The lesson: ruffs early do not guarantee defeat unless the slam is involved.
