gwnn Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 [hv=d=e&v=e&s=sqj73hkq93d74ckj8]133|100|Scoring: IMP[/hv] Good opponents bid undisturbed 1♥-1♠2♦-3♣*3♥-...4♥ 1♥ was limited to 15 hcp. Opps are good, but they are not very sure this is the best contract - a certain nervousness can be felt, screens notwithstanding. When I ask RHO "did you promise 6-4 here?", he answers something along the lines of "well dude if you don't understand a natural sequence, then I can't do anything for you". What do you lead?

655321 Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Low spade. A club lead is also very reasonable. Do we need to cash our clubs now, before they run away on the spades? I am hoping not. And, it is still possible they have the ♣A and ♣Q between them. So I hope to make 3 heart tricks, and perhaps a later club trick. If I led a club here it would be the 8, not the K or J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did the director do? Probably chuckled hehe. It seems to be a choice between black suits, I'll go for a club with no particular conviction.

rogerclee Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I don't like a club that much. Spade for me...going with a small guy. Agree that either red suit lead is very poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jlall Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 low spade is clear imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pclayton Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 Low or high spade. Might be able to establish the tap and it won't rate to give up a trick like a club might. I hate it when I get smartass or nonresponsive answers to questions I ask. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skjaeran Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 I'm going for the low spade. No great conviction though, but that's what feels right for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted February 17, 2008 Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 I like club, they seem to have a problem here, so lets try to exploit it before declarer discards on ♠AK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gwnn Posted February 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 17, 2008 OK the million dollar question: why did I lead a low heart? pd has Txx, and declarer got the first 10 tricks via ruffing with his small hearts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
