655321 Posted February 2, 2008 Report Share Posted February 2, 2008 I will just play very simply - coping with 4-1 hearts looks very tough. Win the ♣K.Play the Ace and K of hearts.run the clubs, pitching a spade.♠K from hand. I am hoping that East has the 3rd heart, and West has both Aces.West can win the spade and play another, then I play a ♦ to the ten. If the club was a singleton, and West doesn't have the 3rd trump, he is likely 6241 and the ♦Q is coming down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

West ducks the ♦T - what now??You snipped the last line of my post. If West looks to be 6241, and ducks the ♦A, I will play the ♦K next, of course, because the queen would be doubleton whether West wins the Ace or not.If West looks to have 2 diamonds and ducks the ♦A, coming down to singleton Ace(?), I can play low.If diamonds are 3-3 and the ♦A is ducked, I will probably go down, as I will if the ♦ is won by the Queen, or if trumps break badly.

Fluffy Posted February 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 I think this line fails because you west will return a diamond and east will have Q9. The winning line was to play the same, but low diamond to the King.
