Play, on the other hand, comprises only 25% of most hands. Of course, there is no scientific analysis which can be applied here but most experts agree that without proper bids. responses, and rebids, one can- not expect to play above-average bridge. Today's deal is an ex- ample of judgment on the part of the North player. Should he bid his spade suit in preference to supporting partner's opening heart bid? We think that the bidding in the box is correct for it is more accurate to both the point count in North's hand and shows his support as weak as it is. Suppose North did respond with one spade. South would probably rebid three hearts and the problem of bidding game would fall upon North who has no idea what strength South has nor any indication of the weak- ness in the combined hands. Therefore, when considering a bid, consider also the next bid partner could make. Judging from your 'strength, make a bid which is most descriptive of your hand. In the actual deal, South counts partner for at least three hearts and between six and nine points and can easily bid game. The hand makes ex- actly four hearts as South will lose two diamonds and a spade.
