Slam bids fail in 1956 France US bridge match
In a 1956 world championship event between France and the United States, two near-slam contracts ended in failures. North opened with a skimpy bid, South pursued a risky slam and went down one, while at the other table a French North-South pair faced a bold four hearts bid. The US benefited 50 points on the deal, but neither side produced a strong result.
