Synopsis:

At the bridge table you have to pay attention to a great number of unknown factors. With double-dummy problems precise conditions apply, since you see all fifty-two cards in the four hands. You handle both attack and defense yourself, naturally doing your very best for both sides. The declarer has to maneuver towards an ending that will paralyze the defense. The techniques required are those that every skilful player possesses as part of his standard repertoire. Those not quite so experienced will have their eyes opened to many hidden possibilities, not least the tremendous significance of small cards in the field of communications. The most important facet of a doubledummy problem, however, is not its instructive side. The purpose is to entertain and to provide a real mental exercise, putting sharp-wittedness to the test.
