This week’s bridge news sheet No. 269 has 7 articles. It starts with an example of where an easy game could have been reached using the Jump Unassuming Cue Bid. Then there’s the usual poor take-out double, this time 0f a 1♥ opening (♠10763 ♥- ♦A10543 ♣10983) – it’s nowhere near strong enough for a double in the direct seat. Next there’s yet another example of the failure to make an automatic re-opening double when playing negative doubles (a huge penalty was missed). There are two Dave’s columns involving the play of the hand. Then there’s two examples of balancing and finally the usual Bridge Cryptogram.
