Codo Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 the most spectacular would be the king of Spade, but obviously this would be a spectular make.The routine play of a spectacular player is the king of Club this could work. I am so boring and lead a high Heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Foxx Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 I would lead a top heart. But if you were to ask me what I thought YOU led, I would say the ♣K! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skorchev Posted July 10, 2007 Report Share Posted July 10, 2007 In Poland we say ♦ - enemy of NT In Poland you say: "♦ kills NT". in Romania we say "hearts, the DEATH of no trumps" In Romania you say: "♥ kills NT". In Bulgaria we say: "♣ kills NT". ;) My lead is standard - ♥K. The killing lead imho is ♠9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if you were to ask me what I thought YOU led, I would say the ♣K!Err, thanks, I'll try to take it as a compliment. I didn't say that the lead was spectacular, the result was.
