Later that evening, I was chatting to the editor who had had the good fortune to work on this manuscript, and couldn’t resist asking him what the experience had been like. ‘Well,’ he replied, ‘he wasn’t a bad writer, you know.’ It has been my good fortune to undertake the bridge equivalent of his experience — to work on editing and publishing a new edition of Victor Mollo’s Bridge in the Menagerie, a book that is included in absolutely everybody’s list of the top ten books ever written on the game of bridge.

But careful timing and ♦ Q6 accurate card reading will win the day. ♣ 42 West leads a low Diamond to East’s Ace, a Diamond is returned to West’s King, and the ♦J is ruffed by Declarer. Things are looking pretty bleak! For starters, Declarer will need the Club finesse to work. And then there is the small matter of the trump suit, where Declarer can afford only two losers. Doesn’t that require the suit to be 3-3? Not necessarily! After ruffing the Diamond, Declarer cashes the ♠A and exits a low Spade, West following with the Jack and then winning the second round with the King. West exits with a Heart won by Dummy’s Ace, then the ♥J is overtaken by the King. Declarer could now exit with a Spade, making his contract if Spades are 3-3. Is that a good idea? No, West has shown up with ♦KJ and ♠KJ and needs to have the ♣K if the contract is to make. That’s 11 HCP, so West cannot also have the ♠Q, that would give him an opening bid.
