MickyB Posted September 30, 2007 Report Share Posted September 30, 2007 [hv=d=e&v=b&s=sjxhajt9dqxxxcxxx]133|100|Scoring: IMPRHO opens a strong club, LHO bids 1♦ negative, and partner shows at least 5/4 in either the majors or the minors (you haven't had any discussion about how good a hand it shows). RHO bids a natural 2♣, you bid 2♥, 3♣ on your left, and you proceed to have a disgusting auction where everyone at the table bids once more until they land up in game (5♣). What's your lead?

TylerE Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 Which game? Please give the full auction, no matter how ugly or joker. It is informative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rebound Posted October 1, 2007 Report Share Posted October 1, 2007 The way I see it, with the opponents having a likely double fit in the minors it seems clear we need 3 tricks in the majors. I choose the ♠ J. Here's hopin' that as part of partner's random 8-or-so-count she holds the ♠ A and can lead a heart through the 1♣ bidder. I grant it could go the other way and we might need to cash 2 hearts before declarer gets in and pitches ♥ losers. I have no idea which is more likely; sometimes you just have to pick a side :P edit:I've totally neglected the diamond queen. The auction should make it easy to pick up I think.
