DISCRETION NEEDED

Experienced rnotch-poiut duplic- ate players otten choose notrump contracts because o! the few extra pﬂlnlg involved, even though they know that a suit contract would be more natural for the hand in question. This practice. however, is dangerous to players who cannot be sure that they will extract every possible trick in the play. Observe

At one taible. however. where an- other South was ambitious enough to choose notrump over hearts, the outcome was not so satisfactory. West led the spade queen. The ace won and South ran oil his five heart tmks. East was a little embarrassed for discards, but only a llttle- he let go two clubs and tvwo spades. trusting his partner, o! course, to talks care of the spade suit. Now when South tried to run the entire diamond suit he was in for e, shook, and he ended up just one trick short. To repeat. it was tempting tn try lnr six notrump instead qt being

satisfied with six hearts (honors do not count at match-point play)
