Guest Jlall Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 A dummy would help, but assuming you're going to continue the suit lead back your original 4th best club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walddk Posted March 30, 2007 Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 ♣4, original 4th best. Great lead, partner! Remember to buzz if you need a partner. I promise to return the 4 :) Roland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted March 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2007 This is what happened at the table, ♣'s blocked and 3nt=I was declarer (sigh of relief) but doubt I would have found 4th best ♣ return if I had been defender. Not a top, others didnt get ♣ lead :) [hv=d=e&v=e&n=sj743hj95d52caj62&w=sak5hkq74dat93c75&e=st96hat2dkqj86ct8&s=sq82h863d74ckq943]399|300|Scoring: IMP[/hv] West North East South - - Pass Pass 1NT Pass 3NT Pass Pass Pass C2 C8 CQ C5 CK C7 C6 CT C3 H4 CJ S6 CA S9 C4 S5 S3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In order to be in a position to cash the 5th club, she must not block the suit by playing the king next. 4th best is paramount here, and also normal with four. The king is only right if you have KQx. Now it's your turn to unblock. Roland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
