New Series by WYNNE FERGUSON
OAuinor of rerguson on viucnon uriagc

Copyiif ht 1915 br Hoyte, Jr.
ARTICLE No. 1
Auction is a game of contrasts. One
hand will play well and the next one
badly; that is, on one hand you wiliest
all the "breaks," and on the next, every
thing will go wrong. It is a game of siu:h
infinite variety that no player can ever
hope to master all its quirks and turns.
Even the beat of players lose their judg
ment at times and allow their own nand
to influence their bidding to their dis
advantage when they should realize
that their partner has an unusual or
Ireak hand. The other night, the writer
noticed two examples of this failure to
be on the lnokout for the unusual or
freak type of hand.
The dealer with the following hand:
Hearts A, 7
Clubs A, 9, 4, 2
Diamonds A, Q, J, 8
. Spades A, K, 4
bid one no trump. Second hand passed
and the dealer's partner bid two hearts.
Fourth hand passed and the dealer bid
two no-trump. When his partner bid
three hearts, the dealer failed to realize
that if his partner had a justifiable three
heart bid, they had a sure game in
hearts, and bid three no-trump although
there was no sure game in no-trump.
The 100 aces were too much for his
judgment and as a result he went down
three tricks undoubled, a net loss of 50
points on a hand that would have scored
game at hearts. His partner's hand was
as follows;
Hearts Q, J, 10,9,6,4
Clubs Q, 6, 3
Diamonds 10, 9, 7
Spades 5
Don't allow 100 aces to impair your
judgment.
T he same player made a similar error
on the following hand: -
Hearts A, Q, 10
Clubs none
Hearts K, Q, 7,6
Clubs 10,4, 2
Diamonds K, 9, 3
Spades A, 6, 4 .
Hearts S, 4, 3
Clubs A, Q, 7, S
Diamonds 6, 4
Spade! 8, 7, S, 2
:A
Hearts A, J, 10,9
Clubs K, 8, 6
Diamonds A, 8, S
Spades J, 9, 3
Z, the player in question, dealt and bid
no-trump. All passed and A opened the
five of clubs. Z won the trick with the
king and led four rounds of hearts. B
discarded two diamonds on the last two
rounds of hearts. Z was now in a posi
tion where he could make two odd but
figured that if he could force B to make
anot her discard, he might possibly make
three odd by making three diamonds or
two spades. At trick five, therefore, he
led the ten of clubs, forcing A to win
the trick, who thereupon led three

His partner dealt and passed, second
hand passed and he bid one spade.
When his partner overbid with two
clubs, he correctly bid two diamonds.
His partner bid three clubs and he bid
three diamonds. This bid is doubtful
but when his partner bid four clubs, he
should certainly have passed. He never
stopped to realize that such bidding by
his partner indicated a most unusual
hand, one of the freak type and that his
high cards in three suits would be of
great help to his partner and that his
partner's clubs would be of little value
to his own hand, if he should obtain the
bid at diamonds or spades. In spite of
all these cogent reasons, however; he
bid four diamonds and all passed. Hi
partner's hand was as follows:
Hearts 8 (
Clubs A, Q, J, 10, 9, 7, S, , 2
Diamonds 8, 7
Spsdes 3
At clubs, they could have made five
odd, losing only one club and one dia
mond trick; while at diamonds they
went down two tricks. It is a fine ex
ample of what not to do with a big
hand. Play for the game, first, last and
all the time, whether the hand is played
by yourself or your partner. Always be
willing to concede the bid to your part
ner when the bidding indicates that he
has a freak hand. In the hand just con
sidered, the dealer could have saved a
lot of trouble by making an original bid
of five clubs. It is a perfect example of
the preemptive or shut out bid. If the
bid fails, it will certainly save game; so
that, in either event, it is a winner.
As a contrast to his bad bidding, the
player whose bids have just been criti
cized played the following hand very
cleverly:
Hearts 8, 2
Clubs J, 9, 3
Diamonds Q, J, 10, 7, 2
Spades K, Q, 10

B:
rounds of clubs. B was now forced to
make another discard. He could have
discarded either a spade or diamond. If
the former, Z would discard a diamond
and make two spade tricks. If the lat
ter, Z would discard a spade and make
three diamond tricks. It is a perfect
example of the "squeeze" play. Study
the play of this hand carefully for it
was cleverly thought out. It is very
unusual to win a game by leading your
opponents' suit. :
