Par Play Problem 5

Uncontested you bid up to 4♣ which west doubles for penalties. You have done well to be in only 4♣. West leads the ♥K. You fill find out that trumps are 5-0 behind you.

 

How do you plan to make your contract?

My idea is to give only one diamond and only two trumphs. It needs some kind of endplay in trumphs in the end:

 

e.g.

W: QJ853 + one card

S: AKT97x

 

Play trumph ten now, west takes, returns his sixth card I ruff and play 9.

 

 

So the first plan is take with an ace (discard diamond), ruff heard, cross in spades, ruff heard, cross in diamonds.

Now I try to count opps' hands and make up something clever.
