For jnstance, if clubs are trumps and you di: ac a heart, the next sult following 1s 4 diamond, which must be your strong suit: Mitchell, in his new work, gives a concise order of play: “‘While the main object of the scientific whist player is to establish and bring in a long suit, it must be admit- ted that in a large number of hands this object cannot dé attained, and the best whist players are those who are quickest at perceiving when, it; is incumbent on them to abandon the idea of making a great hand out of any particular holding, and to reach out for all the stray tricks in sight. When you cannot bring in your tong suit you must bend: your energies in the direc- tion of preventing your adversaries from bringing in theirs, and your trumps are the best weapons to employ. The smallest trump is good for the largest plain suit card, and when it béeomes evident that you and your partner tannot make the most tricks by getting trumps out, and making your long suits, it should be your endeavor to sepsrate your trumps as far as possible, trump the second and third round of your suit, before you eStablish it. There are many ways in whtch ruffing may be used to advantage.” One of the soundest plays in which {s to keep the fead from the hand that has an established suit. The trumps have been drawn for the beriéfit of that hand by bis partner, and often the partner will have to resort to the Deschapelle’s coup, t.e., lead- ing out a king, ‘hoping the adversary will take, enabling his partner's queen of the suit to get the lea#i. Good players hold off the ace, preferring to lose a trick rather. than three, if the hand gets irr the lead’ that has the winning cards.
