CONTRACT A BLUFF DISCARD By Tom O'Nell When succeas with a contract Is difficult It pave at tlmea to give the oposltlon a chance to make mlatakes. There are real aqueeze plays In which the defending aide Is helpless against the playing of auccesslve trumps or high cards of another suit. There are alen pseudo squeezes In which the eneu y guesses wrong aa to what to discard. A recent accomplishment of Bill Huske, one of Ely culbertaon'a right hand men, la the making of a little slam at no trump by discarding the eight of spades and then taxing the last trick with the six spot after an opponent had discarded the queen.
