"The Official Syitem"
a Adopted by Leading Authorities
By E. V SHEPARD
The Luck of the Game.
What your opponents - do. or
which way yon happen to take a
finesse, often decides the score.
Sometimes in duplicate games and
team matches luck may count more
than, skill. Eren a large number
of hands played in match be
tween two pairs may fail to give
equal cards to the competing
sides. You can ffot beat the cards,
although skill counts heavily in
contract. The hands below were
played in a recent duplicate game
with quite different scores at vari
ous tables. Luck counted in play
more wan skiu.

Some players in Z's position bid
no-trump, and some passed, but at
all tables Y became declarer, and
hearts were trumps. Some pairs
bid 4-Hearts, some 5-Hearts, and
four pairs played at 6-Hearts. Two
of these high bidders were doubled,
and two of them escaped without
a double.
In a few cases the opening lead
of the 2 of diamonds caused A's
Q to be captured, and took all
guess out of the play. Y could
not fail to make his small slam
with such an opening.
In most instances the opening
lead was the 4 of clubs. That also
gave Y his contract without diffi
culty,' affording him aa oppor
tunity to discard a diamond front
hi hand l&ttrp an. thna Akviatinan
having to guess whieh way to take ,
'of a minor suit took out all possi-j
bility of defeating the contract.!
nayers who made those openings t
could not understand how Y could I
have been defeated at some tables;!
it required an explanation to con
vince tnem tnat even tne best
player in Ys position might fail on
his bid of a small slam.
The Q of spades opening at two
tables defeated the small slam bv ;
one trick. Normal play of dia
monds was to lay down the K in
declarer's hand, followed by the
J. which was finessed. The role
to lay down the top card from the
short end of the suit, attempting
to set-up the long end of the suit,
beat two pairs.
The hand below was sent to me
with the following inquiry: "Y
played the hand at 8-No Trumps,
after Z had tried to play it at
clubs. The onenimr lead waa th
4 of snadea. The. contra,.
beaten by one trick. Could the
contract have been made?" Think
over the hand until next Monday,
when the answer will be published.
