It worked

Chere voyageuse

1 The contract was 5C, redoubled. Philip was declarer. During the contested auction I had bid 3H. Zenon led the KH. There was one heart on the table. I overtook the K with the A. I led a spade from the Q through Phil's king. He played the king. Zenon took the trick with the ace. He then led the JS. Three tricks off the top. A top for us. The only way the contract could have been defeated.

1.1 (The first time I have played in a redoubled contract for as long as I can remember.)

2 There were other, less successful contracts.

3 Look at The Thunderer in today's Times. (Timesonline.)



Stayathome.

You must have been blogging whilst I was looking.

Well done that is one to write down in the book. 15 March a redoubled contract smashed.
