Goren bridge: Inspired play (opens the original)
Read excerpt
South in today’s deal was American expert John Schermer, who we believe is from the Seattle area. He covered the opening jack of diamonds lead with dummy’s king, losing to the ace. East returned a diamond. Schermer played the 10, expecting it to be ruffed, but West followed with the five. Knowing that West started with short diamonds, Schermer decided not to play West for short clubs also. He cashed the king of clubs and led another club, picking up West’s queen. What next? Who had the king of s

Bidding the “other” major after Stayman to show a fit and slam interest is a common tool for today’s experts. North-South looked good in the bidding but South dropped the ball in the play. He won the opening heart lead in dummy and led a spade to his king. When West showed out, he tried to cash two more hearts to discard a club from dummy, planning to give up a club and ruff a club. East ruffed the third heart and led a club to West’s ace for down one. South had an alternate line of play that is

When this deal was played in a team match, both tables reached four hearts after an opening bid by West and a Michaelâs Cue Bid by North.

They reached the same contract, but played by North, making it easier for EastWest to get a spade ruff. East led a spade to the ace and got a ruff at trick two. Had North, who knew the lead was a

East’s flimsy one-heart bid might have gotten his partner off to a heart lead, but West was likely to have led a heart anyway. The lead was an obvious singleton after East’s bid. South won the heart lead in dummy and led the king of spades, holding the trick. He cashed the king and queen of diamonds before leading the jack of spades from dummy. West did not want to be stuck on lead with the ace, so he won the second spade and continued with a third. Declarer won in hand with the queen and led th

North’s three-heart bid promised some useful values. It was stronger than four hearts. South tried a spade cue bid and then bid slam when North could cue bid four diamonds. South won the opening trump lead and liked his chances. There was no certain entry to dummy, but a 3-2 club split would solve all his problems. He could get to dummy with the fourth round of clubs and discard his low spade on dummy’s ace of diamonds. South cashed another heart, drawing trumps, and then cashed the king and que
