Weak two bid traps and a Phoenix hand analysis
A bridge analysis explains weak two bids promise six cards while opponents must refrain from bold overcalls. In a Phoenix national match Lew Mathe passed Don Krauss’s two heart call, South’s club bid backfired, and a double against three clubs produced a punitive score. The article notes the strategy and a Daily Question example with a hand and recommended pass or two hearts opening. Also mentions HMS Argus as first flight-deck carrier in 1918 and lists Tuesday TV highlights from NBC CBS and ABC.
