Guest Jlall Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 1 is kind of complicated, or more complicated than it seems anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MickyB Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 First one - small to the 9 on the first round, run the ten on the second. Leading the ten at trick 1 loses out to stiff honour onside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 The 3rd problem is a famous suit combination, known in England as 'the Jourdain safety play'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 2nd: King, run the 9 unless RHO shows out. 3rd: Start with the 10 from hand The first is not obvious to me, I'll have to work it through.The instinct is low to the 7, run the 10. But my chances aren't that good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 The 3rd problem is a famous suit combination, known in England as 'the Jourdain safety play'. Nice, I had never seen this before, very counter-intuitive play. Arend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keylime Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 I run the seven around instinctively from the LONG hand. That's my gut feeling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
