Guest Jlall Posted November 5, 2005 Report Share Posted November 5, 2005 Last board of a KO and you are a very fast player so have 20 minutes to play this hand. Take your time. QJ92 AQ Txx T98x Ax Jxxxx KQ9x AQ 3N on the 4 of spades lead (4th best). How do you play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 ♠9, next I will try ♥A+♥Q, didn't take a minute so I guess its wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PMetsch Posted November 6, 2005 Report Share Posted November 6, 2005 I have 4 tricks in ♣s & ♠s (if the ♣ finesse works) and not more than 4♥ tricks. So I need to establish at least 1 ♦ trick, maybe 2. I can think of two lines: 1: ♠Q, ♦ to the king, ♥A, ♣finesse and a heart.2: ♠Q, ♦ to the 9, ♥A, ♣finesse and a heart. Line 1 works if ♥s are 3-3, or ♦J doubleton if I still have ♣ communication. Line 2 works if ♦J is doubleton or third in front or ♦J finesse works and ♥ are 3-3. Maybe line 2 works sometimes even if ♣K finesse is wrong. So I take line 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceptic Posted November 7, 2005 Report Share Posted November 7, 2005 Fluffy, why would you play the 9 and not the Jack of spades ? (only curious) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
