ILLUSTRATIVE HAND NO. 27

TRICK 2.--The dealer after taking the force leads trumps in order to

bring in the established spade suit.

TRICK 4.--This is the critical point in the hand. A can continue to

force the strong trump hand, but as the trumps are evidently all

established in the dealer’s hand, it would enable the dealer to take

out the remaining trumps and make the spades.

This situation is interesting and deserves careful study. It is too

late to force when the adversary holds an established suit against

you. You must make what you can in the other suits before giving up

the lead.

TRICK 5.--A overtakes the queen of clubs in order to continue the

lead.

TRICK 7.--B discards his only spade.

TRICK 8.--A gives B the opportunity to make his losing trump.
