HOW OBSERVANT ARE YOU.........( Problem set by Bridgemeister Gibson ) Bridge is a game which requires players to be logical thinkers, who must strive to remain alert and observant all the time. This is especially true in the case of spotting your partner's count signals and suit preference discards. In each of the following 6 hands, a logical but unusual design rule has been applied, thereby giving each hand a distinct but peculiar characteristic. Can you spot the distinctly odd characteristic in each of the following hands, identifying the design rule that created it ? Answers will appear in a later post. ( Suits from left to right are : spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs )
  • ( a ) : A10743........Q98......KJ52.......6
  • ( b ) : 10532..........853.......972.........642
  • ( c ) : A975...........842.......1062.......A53
  • ( d ) : AK10976.....(void).....QJ104....1053
  • ( e ) : K832..........10853......AQ.......1097
  • ( f ) : Q84............QJ10......Q963.....10864
