A complete top! |
Betty Speelman and Marjolein Debets of the Netherlands gained a complete top on this board from the fourth sessison of the Louis Vuitton Women's Pairs.
The opening lead of the ¨3 ran to declarer's jack, and Speelman immediately went after spades, leading low to the jack and queen and carefully noting the fall of the 9 from East. R. Menil attacked hearts, and F. Pigeaud won the king and continued the suit. Now Speelman led the KING of spades, pinning the 10 as West won the ace. She won the heart return and cashed the good ª8 and ª7. After taking her top diamonds, she got out of dummy with a diamond. East had to win and lead a club into declarer's tenace. No wonder Speelman got all the matchpoints. |
