South Makes No Trump Contract In Three No Trump
In a three no trump contract, South with a strong balanced hand opens two no trump. North shows a five card major and rebids no trump. South wins the opening lead, takes eight top tricks, and with careful discards and cross ruffing secures the ninth. West cannot prevent the contract and declarer avoids finessing. The diagram shows the defense had no better helping chance.
