cherdano Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 [hv=d=w&v=n&n=sxxxhkt8daxxcq963&e=sk6haq73dxxckjt74]266|200|Scoring: IMPP-P-1♣-1NP-2♣-P-2♠P-2N-P-3N[/hv]Partner leads spade J to your king and ace. (You don't know why partner led into declarer's four-card suit but let's assume he will be sensible from trick two on.) Declarer plays four rounds of diamonds and will then cash a spade queen. Plan your defense. Arend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchett Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 I can play partner for the ♥J. In which case I give declarer AQxx xx KQJx Axx, and pitch two clubs on the diamonds. If he ducks a club to me, I win cheaply and return the heart Q to stop myself being endplayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cherdano Posted April 3, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Yep, this was exactly the layout. I think it's also ok if you discard a club and a heart. (My opponent got this wrong.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hatchett Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Discarding a club and a heart doesn't work, declarer leads a heart covering lho's card and now you are endplayed twice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
