at1839 Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 Hi :) [hv=d=s&v=e&n=s86ha432dat6cakqj&s=sajt753hj9dkj8ct7]133|200|Scoring: IMP[/hv] 6 spades by south, top ♥6 for A - 8 - J. Declarer play 3 club's round and discard ♥, then finesse spade T to west Q.♥Q is returned wich collect 2 - K and ruffed in hand. What now? Is your advice to draw ♥ Ace or finesse (need two entry) ♦ T then finesse again spade? Actual play was ugh, interesting :lol: Declarer finessed ♦ but East was apparently away and didn't took the Q. He was so kind not to ask for an undo, else if proposed by declarer ... Ty in advance for any comment. Paolo, at1839 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rebound Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 IMO all 4 suits seem to be breaking evenly. I would just cash the ♠A. But I'm no expert. I'd be interested to hear what others have to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbforster Posted October 9, 2007 Report Share Posted October 9, 2007 My initial impression was to hook the T♦ and finesse again in spades. Upon reflection though, we are only making when spades are 3-2 anyway. The cases that matter consistent with the first round of spades are LHO RHO ways commentsHx Hxx 6 (need 2nd finesse)Hxx Hx 6 (2nd finesse or play A)HH xxx 1 (play A) At this point it looks like slightly odds on to lay down the A♠ just in the spade suit (7:6). Together with the entry issue and that you can pitch your diamond on the long club if all goes well, I like playing the A much better. The diamond hook line seems much worse, almost as bad as a "practice finesse". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
