Some hosers were playing bridge in our terminal room the other
night, and the contract on the following hand was four hearts.
When I saw declarer's and dummy's hand, I said, "Oh, wow, you
can make six."
S- A 9 8 4
H- Q 9 6
D- 7
C- A K Q T 4
S- Q 3
H- A K J 7 2
D- J T 6 5 3
C- 7
Well, 6 needs somewhat favorable distribution, and a sort-of kind
opening lead. Now, try and make 6 with 5 hearts in the east hand.
One of the defenders lead away from the KS at one point, giving
away a trick, but the declarer still only made five (he didn't
plan for the 5-0 break). Play with it, talk about the possibilities.
