12/25/19 - Grand Slam #3 of the Day
#analysis
Moving on with Friday the 13th¡¯s Grand-Slam-a-Palooza we arrive at the tragedy of Board 2: ? ¡¡¡¡¡²Ï102 ¡¡¡¡¡106 ¡¡¡¡¡°²Ï1075 ¡¡¡¡¡²Ï106 ´¡°65¡¡¡¡¡.¡¡±¹´Ç¾±»å ´¡°´³¡¡.¡¡¡¡.¡.²Ï98752 3¡¡¡¡¡¡¡..¡¡´¡984 ´¡°732¡¡¡¡¡.¡.´³98 ¡¡¡¡¡´³98743 ¡¡¡¡¡43 ¡¡¡¡¡´³62 ¡¡¡¡¡54 ? Six of the twelve E-W pairs stopped in game (Lune doing particularly well when their opponents arrived in the inferiour 5C). Every other table played, at any level, in hearts. Jam salvaged a decent result in 4H, being the only pair to take thirteen tricks. This strikes me as rather unlikely with the trumps splitting 2-2. If declarer draws trumps, the clubs can be established, and, if declarer ruffs two diamonds, the 2-2 trump split (or singleton ten) also allows declarer to take all the tricks. Five pairs bid the small slam, in which Boyce and Glotin made the overtricks. Shahuvon were N-S top when their opponents bid 7H and went one down. ? If East¡¯s heart deuce were the ten, or even if the jack and deuce were swapped, 7H would be almost a guaranteed make. Declarer could easily trump two diamonds. As the cards lie, that line would have a chance of success of about 52.5%, as it would rely on dropping the ten-spot (which would work here). Establishing the clubs offers a much better chance. ? Assuming the standard opening lead of a trump and third hand following, declarer can cash one club (in case of a singleton queen, after which one diamond ruff will suffice). Then cash West¡¯s top spades, discarding East¡¯s other two clubs, and ruff the second round of clubs with an intermediate spot. If clubs split 3-2, then West has three winning clubs on which to discard East¡¯s low diamonds; draw trumps, ending in the West hand, and that¡¯s it. If clubs split 4-1 and either North has the shortage or South cannot overruff, then the hearts must split 2-2 ¨C lead a trump to West, which must draw the N-S trumps, then trump the third round of clubs, cash the diamond ace and reach West with a diamond ruff to discard the remaining two diamonds on West¡¯s last two clubs. ? If North holds at least two cards in each black suit and a third in either, declarer can survive North¡¯s holding all four trumps. Billie Hecker would have enjoyed such a layout, which might have appeared in the Goren column as one of the exploits of Trump Coup Tommy. I¡¯ll suppose a club lead from South to West¡¯s ace, then the heart ace, giving the bad news. Spade ace, spade king discarding a diamond and a club. Spade ruff, diamond ace, then East¡¯s last club to the king. If North follows, declarer is home free in the position: ? ¡..6¡¡¡.±¹´Ç¾±»å ¡..°´³¡¡..²Ï987 ¡..±¹´Ç¾±»å¡¡98 ¡..732¡¡.±¹´Ç¾±»å ? If North ever ruffs with the heart ten, East overruffs and has a high crossruff remaining. Otherwise, black and red ruffs alternate. Eventually, North will have to underruff. East when down to two trumps will finesse North¡¯s ten by ruffing. In this position, the lead must be in the West hand, or else East will be on lead at trick twelve with Q9 of hearts and unable to catch North¡¯s 106. If East held only one trump more than West, either hand could be on lead. ? Can 7H be bid? It does not seem too far-fetched. If East opens 2H (the void is less of a deterrent than it once was), West certainly envisions slam. The auction could be 2H-4NT; 6H-7H. East jumps to 6H to show one key card and a void in spades (the only suit higher than the trump suit; switch the red suits and 2D-4NT; 6D does not specify in which major the void lies). Unless East is Marge Fiedler (who would highly likely not hold the queen of hearts), West can bid 7H with reasonable expectation of being able to establish the clubs. ? If East passes and West opens 2C (Bill Reich might refrain, even with the six Quick Tricks, but I cannot think of anyone else who might), then East probably must give a 2H positive if the possibility exists. After 2C-2D; 3C-3H, West might not want to commit to the five-level. If West merely raises to 4H, East can advance. The Losing Trick Count is seven, and West should hold half the deck. A 4S cue-bid probably leads to 6H; West might cue-bid 5C and get 5D in reply, but then what? A 2H positive will likely draw a 3H raise and then 4NT from West, but West might be less eager for the grand slam without knowledge of East¡¯s holding six hearts. ? The Precision auction if East passes as dealer can catch up, due to the availability of a semi-positive 2H response to 1C. Fortunately, this sort of auction is generally not supposed to go the route of asking bids (as would have happened had East held West¡¯s jack of hearts and responded 1H), as E-W would have run out of room, finding the trump queen and diamond ace but also finding no control of clubs without being able to find the spade void as well. |
12/24/19 - Grand Slam #2 of the Day
#analysis
We continue Friday the 13th¡¯s Grand-Slam-a-Palooza with Board 4, Karleta¡¯s second grand slam of the day: ? ¡¡¡¡¡´³86 ¡¡¡¡¡3 ¡¡¡¡¡²Ï109652 ¡¡¡¡¡974 °102¡¡¡¡¡¡¡.´¡4 ´¡108542¡¡¡¡¡.°´³7 ´¡´³3¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡.°87 °¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡.´¡²Ï´³63 ¡¡¡¡¡²Ï9753 ¡¡¡¡¡²Ï96 ¡¡¡¡¡4 ¡¡¡¡¡10852 ? This hand has some similarities to Board 25. There are nine trumps instead of eight, and a combined 33 HCP instead of 32, but the major-suit fit is missing the queen, the partnership holds all the aces and kings and the responding hand holds the singleton club king opposite five headed by the ace-queen (although here East holds the jack as well). The extra point and extra trump, along with opening bidder¡¯s not holding a singleton king, gave a considerable boost to the bidding results. Board 25 resulted in seven game contracts, three small slams and two grand slams (weirdly, two of the three small slams failed while both grand slams made); here, while the first pair stopped in game, the next seven E-W pairs and one later bid small slams, while three of the last four E-W pairs to play the hand bid grand slams, with only Karleta succeeding, in 7H. ? Jerik were N-S top when their opponents tried 7NT. That contract did have more chance of succeeding than 7H, with only the minor drawback of potentially failing by more than one trick. There is a legitimate play for the contract if declarer does not bring in the hearts. It needs a lot ¨C a 4-3 club split, the diamond finesse and either an especially lucky spade position or for one defender to hold both major guards ¨C heart Qxx and spade QJx or longer, allowing a squeeze. Accordingly, after misguessing the hearts, declarer took the diamond finesse and ended two down (although he could have saved one down by taking the king first, then winning the second diamond and giving up the heart queen, as the red queens were in opposite hands). In 7H, Breta guessed the trumps correctly, while Phary¡¯s opponents did not. ? A reasonable auction might be something like 1C-1H; 2NT-3H; 4C-4NT; 5C-5D; 5H-6NT. After opener¡¯s jump rebid of 2NT, responder can use 3C as a relay to 3D with all hands that want to stop below game, freeing up a direct 3H as forcing (I have an old book of Sam Stayman¡¯s from the 1960s in which 1m-1M; 2NT-3M is listed as non-forcing, back in the day before relay-style conventions were common). East has an excellent hand for hearts ¨C good controls, good support, good side suit. It would be possible to cue bid the spade ace first with 3S but starting with a cue bid of 4C allows East to follow with 4S if West cue bids 4D. As it happens, West knows the side has 33-34 HCP, and is going to small slam at least. East shows three key cards ¨C good. But East denies holding the queen of hearts. The six-level is high enough; East can¡¯t have quite enough to provide good play for a grand slam without bringing in the hearts. 6NT is a good matchpoint try. The only risky hand East might hold would be, say, AQJx? KJx? xx? AQJx ¨C missing the heart queen and diamond king-queen. Even then, the chance of an opening diamond lead is not high, as North would probably not lead away from the quing. And even after a diamond lead, more than half the time West will bring in the hearts and make an overtrick. ? 7H is fine if the opening lead is a trump, which is likely to happen if opening leader holds, say, a low doubleton. One can be uneasy about leading a singleton trump against a grand slam, especially against opponents who don¡¯t look for the trump queen. Or the opponents could hold an eight-card fit with all the top three honours missing jack-fourth in partner¡¯s hand. ? Now, as we saw in the case of Board 25 (although that was an eight-card fit, so that there was less chance of opening leader¡¯s holding a singleton), it is not unreasonable when, playing a grand slam with a two-way finesse (or here there¡¯s even the third alternative of playing for the drop) for the queen of trumps, assuming that an opponent who does not lead a trump may well hold the queen. Here, that line of thinking would not work. Is there any clue that might tip table presence the other way? There are four ways to play the trumps, with chances (assuming no ruff of an attempted entry to a necessary hand) in a range from 50% to 57.5%. King, then drop (57.5%); king, then finesse (56.25%) (ace, then drop has a unique chance of success of 52.5% but is just an inferiour subset of king, then drop); ace, then finesse (51.25%); run the ten (50%). ? I only saw that Breta received the opening lead of a black card, and missed the rest of the hand, although it¡¯s clear that she guessed the trumps correctly. I¡¯ll assume that South was not so inexperienced as to cover the heart jack on the second round or take too long to duck. If the lead were a club, I can¡¯t see any hint strong enough that South probably holds Qxx or Qxxx. A spade lead to the queen and ace ¨C just maybe. Leading away from a jack (if third hand is not false-carding) is not an obvious lead. I might catch it if the lead were a slow one, on the idea that a player with Qxx or Qx in trumps would lead quickly, in order to try not to look like a player holding the queen of trumps. But it¡¯s always hard to guess what will set off one¡¯s table presence. ? Of the three possible grand slams, 7C ought to be the surest make. It requires a 4-3 trump split as well as the heart guess but is the only contract in which the guess solves itself. I¡¯ll assume an opening trump lead. Club king, spade ace, club ace, club queen, club jack. Alas, West must discard a diamond on the fourth trump, but this only makes a difference when the diamond queen drops doubleton. After trumps are drawn, the heart king comes while East still holds an entry (although North might likely have doubled 7C with a void heart). Then, in either order, declarer cashes the top two diamonds and the spade king followed by a ruff, in either case ending in the East hand looking at: ? ¡..±¹´Ç¾±»å¡¡¡.±¹´Ç¾±»å ¡..´¡108..¡¡´³7 ¡..±¹´Ç¾±»å¡¡¡.8 ¡..±¹´Ç¾±»å¡¡¡.±¹´Ç¾±»å ? with only the heart queen and nine-spot outstanding. What does East know about the distribution? South held four clubs and North three. South discarded on the second diamond, marking North with six. And North followed to all three rounds of spades as well as the first heart. 3+6+3+1=13. North¡¯s remaining cards are all diamonds; the heart finesse is marked. Being able to ruff the third spade is what gives 7C its edge over 7NT, in which contract declarer could play only two rounds of spades before guessing the hearts, which would leave both 3=1=6=3 and 2=2=6=3 as possible hand patterns. |

12/23/19 - Grand Slam #1 of the Day
#analysis
Friday the 13th¡¯s Grand-Slam-a-Palooza will be reviewed in order of descending minus scores. We shall begin with Board 25, on which two pairs failed in 6S and Joill even set 4S: ? ¡¡¡¡¡´¡1072 ¡¡¡¡¡° ¡¡¡¡¡´¡93 ¡¡¡¡¡´¡²Ï976 ²Ï6¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡.853 ²Ï8632¡¡¡¡¡¡.´³1074 ²Ï8642¡¡¡¡¡¡.±¹´Ç¾±»å 3¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡.´³108542 ¡¡¡¡¡°J94 ¡¡¡¡¡´¡95 ¡¡¡¡¡°J1075 ¡¡¡¡¡° ? Georold scored 7/11 matchpoints for playing in 3NT declared by South, making six. This one is rather puzzling. The most plausible auction I can conjure is 1C-1S; 2S-3NT, as they played this board in the second round, before either of them would have gotten into operational mode. Four pairs played in 4S, with North taking twelve or nine tricks and South ten or thirteen. Two pairs played 5S S +1. That left five pairs in slam; two Norths went down in 6S, Sareff played 6NT N =, Ruleste 7S S = and Kerma 7NT S =. ? I¡¯ll guess that the result of 6S -1 came about after a club lead, after which declarer led a trump to dummy¡¯s ace and then finessed on the way back. Would it be smart of East to play the club deuce on the opening lead? It might signal to West that East wants a diamond switch if West gets in, but South might also get suspicious to see an opponent play an unexpected deuce. ? This is the sort of hand that often traps old-fashioned bidders such as Celeste and Norma, who remain with standard Blackwood. Note that North and South hold all the aces and kings between them. A pair that does not find out about the queen of trumps can get into these grand slams. Note how much easier 7S would be to make with ? A1072 2 AQ9 AQ976 ? KQJ9 A95 KJ1075 4 ? Here I can suppose Ruleste¡¯s auction to have been 1C-1S; 3S-4NT; 5S-5NT; 6D-7S. Norma might have started with 1D, but I suspect not, as South only initiates the asking sequence if North jumps. If the auction starts 1C-1D; 1S, South makes the first show of strength (say, with 2H as Fourth Suit Forcing), and it¡¯s just as likely North will start asking. ? Jerik would have known they held all the aces and kings right away, and then would have had the rest of the auction to find a fit, perhaps settling on diamonds or maybe finding the 4-4 spade fit. I¡¯m not sure how they adjust their slam auctions to find queens when a 1C opener knows what the ace and king situation is. Precision has a tricky time of it. The auction starts 1C-2D, and then opener can delay the diamond support until finding out about responder¡¯s clubs with 3C-3H, denying club support but showing at least four controls, so that North knows South holds the heart ace and at least two of the three missing kings. North can then choose to go to a natural auction with 3S, over which South can go to 4NT and make a normal auction of it, probably settling in 6S. Or North may take the route of asking about South¡¯s diamonds with 4D-4S, showing a five-card suit with one top honour. That could lead to either 6D or 6NT. ? South might not have been left in 7S, which gives me the idea that Kerma¡¯s auction might have gone the same as Ruleste¡¯s, except that East might have made a quite reasonable double of 7S on the diamond void. Doubles of grand slams by opening leader¡¯s partner, except when they are on a surprise trump trick (which I do not advise, recalling the time one Tuesday when the Baushers were doubled in 7S by a player with J1097 in trumps; Phyllis, who had running clubs, could have pulled the double to a cold 7NTm but her psychic friend made her leave the double in, and Larry made 7S doubled when the doubler foolishly ruffed a club low), are sure to be a void. Here, though, if South is doubled in 7S, West will probably not have the clue of a diamond bid from South to assist in the selection between equally long red suits. I would still expect, though, that 7S doubled would be set even after a heart lead. East¡¯s double would flag the diamond void for South (if the void were in clubs, West would certainly have led a club holding seven), but it would be reasonable of declarer to guess East to hold the spade queen and finesse that West, resulting in two down. 6S doubled with a heart lead, though, seems likely to make an overtrick, as declarer will likely play the ace and king. ? Taking the play of 7S undoubled, declarer is not too badly off. West presumably leads the singleton club, and declarer might well go right. As the usual lead against a grand slam is a trump, if I were put into 7S and found myself with such a two-way finesse, I should very likely play opening leader for the trump queen on that mild inference. When West turns up with the queen, declarer is in excellent shape. After drawing trumps, a 4-3 club split establishes the thirteenth trick, with the two-way diamond finesse in reserve. The play goes: club king, spade king, spade ace, spade ten, club ace discarding a diamond, heart king, club queen discarding a diamond, club ruff, heart ace discarding a diamond, heart ruff, leaving North with D A93 and South D KJ10. Both East and West have followed to three rounds of hearts, but West has discarded on the second club and on the third spade. With East known to have three hearts and nine black cards, there is no room for more than one diamond in the hand. Declarer can lead a diamond to the king and finesse with confidence, even if East follows at trick eleven. ? While 7NT cannot be defeated, it is more difficult to make than 7S as the diamonds must be finessed on the first round to win four tricks in the suit even if declarer guesses the spades correctly. For that reason, I shall guess that Norma received the opening lead of a diamond away from the queen, making just a spade guess necessary. ? 6NT seems as if it ought to make even if declarer misguesses the diamonds. Club king, diamond ace, club ace discarding a spade, and now declarer knows both East and West began with seven cards in the majors. The plan is then to squeeze an opponent with the queen or length in spades. It is easier to do this to East than West because of the blockages and West¡¯s being out of clubs. Take the heart king, then run the diamond nine. West must put South back in to take the red winners. On the last of these, if East has not discarded two spades, North comes down to a spade doubleton. South will be on lead at trick nine looking at ? A10 void void Q9 ? KJ9 9 void void ? If East began with three spades, the third spade must be discarded on trick nine to keep the club guard (it¡¯s even worse if East held the only heart guard as well, though that¡¯s highly unlikely). Declarer crosses to the spade ace, cashes the club queen, and now on the spade back at trick twelve knows that East¡¯s thirteenth card is a high club and that the king can be played with confidence. This is occasionally called a show-up squeeze, solving a two-way finesse by reducing it to a drop if the hand with length doesn¡¯t hold the missing honour. ? The opposite squeeze against West can be tried, but there is no guarantee that West will have the only heart guard. That line then really amounts to planning to play West for Qxx in spades ¨C declarer hopes to come down to ? A107 void void void ? K9 9 void void ? and then finesse through West if necessary. ? As West actually holds Qx, either line succeeds. |
