Echognome Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 [hv=d=n&v=n&n=saxxxhktxxd8xckxx&s=skqxhqxdkj97xcjxx]133|200|Scoring: IMPP - (P) - 1NT - All Pass[/hv] You open a weak NT in 3rd seat and play there. Your LHO leads a small club (I forget the spot). You play small from dummy and RHO wins the Q. RHO then switches to a spade. Plan the play.

Echognome Posted January 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 so many feasibility,i would start from ♦ suit and finesse ♦ Q,the opps defense trick is 3♣+2♦ +1♥ This is assuming you will win the ♠A in dummy at trick 2? As a hint, clubs are 5-2, with Qx on your right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 That's funny, I assumed clubs were 6-1. The switch was very odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echognome Posted January 17, 2006 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 That's funny, I assumed clubs were 6-1. The switch was very odd. At my table, RHO continued with a club and clubs were cleared with a low club (hence my assumption that LHO had a diamond honour). It was our teammates that switched to a spade and declarer failed. I gave the problem from our teammates table as I felt it slightly harder. Ok I will stop with the clues now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted January 17, 2006 Report Share Posted January 17, 2006 I'm assuming RHO (who DIDN'T forget his partner's spot B) ) would have continued clubs with 4 or 2, but not 3 or 1. Qxx seems like the most likely holding; since they didn't balance or compete over my 1N, it seems the opponents are balanced. The have 18 between them RHO fired a spade into A-4th. Interesting. This doesn't look appealing with J-4th or any 3 card holding, so I'm putting RHO on 5 spades (are the spade really x's or do we have the 8 and 9? If RHO has 5 spades, it looks like LHO is 1=4=4=4. RHO will probably have one of the red aces but not both. First I want to knock out the A♥ first, so I'll lay down the Q♥, intending to hook the 10 if pushed. If my read on the hand is right, LHO will feel some discomfort on the spades, and will probably release a club early. I will be able to knock out the A♣ and be able to cash my winner there. There are a lot of permutations on the hand, but even if I'm reading the hand wrong, I can change my mind about things later, and try to set up diamonds for instance.

Looking at the dummy hand, RHO shift to ♠, that means ♦ suit has some good news to me. did u understand this?of course opps maybe very poor ,that isn't my thinking for reference.
