{Culbertson: In its broader aspects, all successfull bidding at the Contract
table is based on psychology. To attain the best results in bidding, you must
have a keen insight into the mental level of your partner and opponents. This,
of course, means psychology in its better sense. Unfotunately, however, there
has grown up an immense amount of so-called psychic bidding at the contract
table, which is anything but psychology in fact. It is mostly cheap, coarse
bluff. However, there are many times when opponents can be confused as to
honour-trick strength and distributional values by bids which may temporarily mislead
your partner.Analysis of the bidding: 1NT is a fine psychological bid to
obscure the hand pattern to opponents. 2S correctly helping partner and making
adverse bidding more difficult. A very fine double, which is probably an equally
important factor in eventing opponents from reaching the proper contract.
Building an excellent structure upon a firm psychological foundation.\n

Jacoby: This is another hand in which after a psychic bid on my part
opponents reached three notrump and were set 2 tricks. Without my psychic they might
have played the hand at three diamonds or three hearts, and either contract
would have been made. Without the spade lead, which was improbable without my
spade bid, even four hearts could have been made.\n

{Jacoby: In my opinion Lenz had no occasion to bid beyond two hearts on this
hand. My double of J.Culbertson's non-vulnerahle one spade hid definitely
denied support for hearts. My two heart bid was a further denial, as it merely
showed I liked hearts at least as well as diamonds. After Lenz's three heart bid
my hand of course called for four. I should not have redoubled, but I was
certain that if Lenz held only one club, we would be able to make four. Actually
the set should have been held to 2 tricks.\n

{Culbertson: The heart suit is not strong enough to justify an Opening bid of
three hearts.Although devoid of honour-trick strength, the seven-card suit
justifies regulation takeout of two clubs. Jacoby, not vulnerable, inserts a
nuisance bid of three spades. With three stoppers in the opponents' suit,
Culbertson now prefer to bid three notrump rather than continue with his hearts, which
may not fit with partner's hand.J.Culbertson's second regulation takeout in
four clubs is a clear indication of the character of her hand. Had she had
sufficient honour-strength she would have either allowed the three notrump to
stand or bid five clubs.\n

{Gruenther: J.Culbertson's takeout double disclosed a holding of at least 3
honour-tricks and implied a preference for a spade response by partner. When
E.Culbertson bid one spade over south's redouble and later raised the spade
contract to game, he was brilliantly applying the principles of his system as
expounded in his "Contract Bridge Blue Book.". \n
