4 : Preface begins with relevant tips and explains possibly unfamiliar queen vocabulary. Tips are not formulas. Nevertheless, I have re-tested the tips in recent international tournaments and they work well. To understand my Bols Tip and the vocabulary, take the example of Queen Sacrifice. In an endplay, defender holds Qxx, dummy has K109, and declarer has Axx. He sacrifices the queen to protect partner’s jack. Likewise, holding Q10x opposite dummy’s 98x, a defender sacrifices the queen in an endplay for two tricks when declarer to your left holds AJx. A further example is Queen (King) Hiding, the skill of hiding a crucial queen (king). I have witnessed experts revealing too many high cards, thereby exposing partner's off-side singleton king. This book assumes some advanced skills surrounding queens and, to a lesser extent, kings and jacks. Coups include Emperor, Deschapelles, Bath, Morton, and others. I wish to thank the publisher for printing this work and the players who have played with or against me. I have had the good fortune of playing against world champions in qualifying rounds—and the even better fortune of never having lost to one. Their complimentary comments remain in my heart. I hope you enjoy this book, which is dedicated to players who would like to “Queen” their bidding, play, lead, defence, and overall enjoyment of bridge. Clement Wong Hong Kong
