You're agreement is to give attitude, not count here. How do you plan the defence? More info in hidden text. You overtake with the ace and lay down the ♣K. Declarer follow with the 9 and partner the 4. You're using standard count and low encourage. What now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I don't follow your line in the hidden text. I tell partner at trick one how many diamonds I have. Then he will know how many are cashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then he will know how many are cashing. Using standard count, the 9 would be ambigous, since it could be from AJ9 or AJ9x.The jack is unambigous (need to be AJ9x) probably, since you'd overtake with AJ tight. So that should work, I agree.

Fluffy Posted August 22, 2007 Report Share Posted August 22, 2007 I overtake and switch to ♣J My reasoning is that partner doesn't need to encourage ths card (if declarer plays low), so he can give count. If having to play 2 rounds of a suit to get a real count, it is better for it to be clubs than diamonds. Ok, after writign all of this I realise if declarer lpays ♣Q partner doesn't have a clue who has ♣K and will probalby just play ♦Q :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
