easy Posted November 2, 2003 Report Share Posted November 2, 2003 I like to lead the unbid suit in these auctions. Since spades is the unbid suit i lead a spade. But they bid spades you say. nope. 2s was 4th suit forcing and not natural. The real question is which spade do i lead. That would depend on what i know about opponents. If they are novices i lead the K asking partner about his attitude. If they are experts i lead my 4th best spade. Why the difference? Because im sure that experts know that the original 2s bid was artificial and will have a stopper in the suit. novices/intermediates may think the suit is promising a stopper and bid nt thinking their partner has a stopper in the suit when in fact neither has a stopper in the suit.

drmartin Posted November 5, 2003 Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 it seems to me that spade is logical. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poky Posted November 5, 2003 Author Report Share Posted November 5, 2003 Why a diamond, Luis? Really, that was the only lead that I excluded immediately. Opener very probably has 5D and 4C... Or maybe you try to guess opener's [Qxx x Jxxx AKQJx]? B) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe you try to guess opener's [Qxx x Jxxx AKQJx]? B) I choose a passive lead, hard to give up a trick leading a diammond in my opinion. Maybe there's time to switch later. And sometimes opener has more clubs than diamonds if not enough to reverse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
