Hi all
Last Thursday I enjoyed my first Thanksgiving ever. Discard soberness, the task at hand was to indulge in enormous amounts of food. I’m not exaggerating here, there was not just one 16-pound-turkey prepared for us (some twenty people), no, there were two of those beasts waiting for us.
I have some nice memories from the day before as well. I was a mercenary for Leerdam in the ICL. This game I had a trick up my sleeve, and when the opponent didn’t pay attention for a moment, I got away with murder.
1. Weak, 4+
I thought I had an easy save against their vulnerable game, but look what happened:
West started with a trump for the Ace in dummy. I finessed in directly and West fired back his Queen of trumps for my King. When I played the Ace of I noticed East had dropped two pretty valuable cards. So far I’ve only lost one trick, but there are still a and two to lose. If only I could dispose of three in dummy.
Ingredients: an evil and greedy mind + sleepy West
I innocently played the 6 of from hand and West followed with the 5. Bingo! Next I was able to discard two more from dummy and claim +590.
