AFTER READING the accounts
of the playing of the first twc
days, I am convinced that for a
long time I have been an expert
but didn’'t know it. For instanceo,
there was the hand when Mr. Lenz
bid four no-trump and then iecll
into the error of thinking that dia
monds were trumps. He lost 300
points on a hand on which he
shoula have made 960 points. On
one deal the Culbertson team bid
iive diamonds end went down four
tricks when a five club bid would
have won.
On another deal, this one on tho
second day's play, Mr. Lenz open
ed {he bidding with two diamonds.
[li¢ partner raised the bid to two
no-trump. Both members of the
Culbertson team passed. Mr. Lenz
then raised the bid to thres no
ruimnp, in spite of the fact that his
hand included a singleton heart, in
‘tead of rebidding his diamonds.
On the play Mr. Culbertson led a
trip heart. His partner took the
rick with the ace and led another
small heart Mr. Lenz's partner
played the jack. Mr. Culbertson
who held the king, let the jags
turn. holding his high ecard for a
reentry. If ne had played his king
he could have turned five more
tricks in hearts. setting the Lenzz
team by two. Instead, Mr. lLenz's
partner took the lead with his jack
and ran off ten tricks. Thus, Mr.
Lenz's elephantine bidding was of
set by Mr. Culbertson's southpaw
playing
