skjaeran Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I guess I'd go for a very straightforward line:♦A, ♠A, ♠ ruff, ♥A, ♣A, ♠ ruff, low ♦ to ♥10, ♥KQ, ♣K, ♦K discarding last ♣, ♣ ruff, ♠10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted June 26, 2007 Report Share Posted June 26, 2007 I think the order is slightly different, as LHO appears to have a doubleton diamond (I am probably stuck if LHO has a singleton diamond) Ace of diamondsKing of diamonds discarding a clubAce of spadesSpade ruff lowKing of clubsAce of clubsSpade ruff lowClub ruffed hopefully low (in the literal sense of hopefully) - or a diamond ruff in hand, if LHO seems to have 3 diamondsSpade ruff high Now I am down to diamonds & clubs in dummy, and KQ10x of hearts in hand.I ruff a diamond low, and LHO can over-ruff but is endplayed. If RHO ruffs in on the 3rd round of clubs, I'll need to know exactly what my heart pips in hand are. Here's an alternative line: AK of diamonds discarding a spadeAce of spades, spade ruffClub to hand, spade ruffAce of heartsDiamond ruffed with the H10 - if this holds up, KQ of hearts and claim if hearts are 3-2 This line looks worse than the first one. I think there's a possible minor suit squeeze line in there somewhere, but I can't quite make it work better than the alternatives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted July 2, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 I missed this one for a while, as the cards line everyline worked. The heart pips I think are not important since RHO won't ever ruff with singleton trump (he must have 6 diamonds then and you are down), and after overruffing you are home just drawing trumps and conceding a spade. My partner played Frances line wich would had been so pretty if trumps were 4-1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
