Safety play in contract bridge is a generic name for plays in which declarer maximizes the chances for fulfilling the contract (or achieving a certain score) by ignoring a chance for a higher score. Declarer uses safety plays to cope with potentially unfavorable layouts of the opponent's cards. In so doing, declarer attempts to ensure the contract even in worst-case scenarios, by giving up the possibility of overtricks.

| - Dans le jeu de bridge, le jeu de sécurité ne désigne pas une manœuvre précise en particulier mais toute manœuvre ayant pour but d'assurer l'objectif principal quitte, éventuellement, à avoir une espérance moindre en termes de nombres de levées. L'objectif principal consiste naturellement la plupart du temps en la réalisation du contrat ; mais il peut aussi parfois s'agir de limiter le nombre de chutes (typiquement pour un contrat contré lorsqu'on pense que l'équipe adverse pouvait gagner une manche) ou d'assurer un résultat au moins aussi bien (en tournoi par paires) que ce que l'on pense être le résultat le plus populaire de la donne.

- Safety play in contract bridge is a generic name for plays in which declarer maximizes the chances for fulfilling the contract (or achieving a certain score) by ignoring a chance for a higher score. Declarer uses safety plays to cope with potentially unfavorable layouts of the opponent's cards. In so doing, declarer attempts to ensure the contract even in worst-case scenarios, by giving up the possibility of overtricks. Safety plays adapt declarer's strategy to the scoring system. In IMP-scoring tournaments and rubber bridge, the primary scoring reward comes from fulfilling the contract and overtricks are of little marginal value. Therefore, safety plays are an important part of declarer technique at quantitative scoring. In matchpoint games, which use comparative scoring, overtricks are very important. Therefore, although safety plays have a certain role at matchpoints, they are normally avoided if the odds for making the contract are good and overtricks are likely. (en)
