gnasher Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 At IMPs I'd lead ♥A, without much hope. A diamond at matchpoints. Maybe a spade is right, to force declarer to cash dummy's winners before he's set up his ninth trick? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazy4hoop Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 Low ♥. I'm sure I'll chalk up minus at least 400 and be faced with the challenge of not tilting the next few boards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted August 6, 2008 Report Share Posted August 6, 2008 At IMPs I'd lead ♥A, without much hope. A diamond at matchpoints. Maybe a spade is right, to force declarer to cash dummy's winners before he's set up his ninth trick?I agree with the red suit choices, but I can't conjure up a layout where the spade is right... if rho has a stiff spade, either he would have raised to 4♠ and/or he has a source of tricks himself, so I don't think that making him run his spades will work. Actually, I have a sneaking suspicion that a spade may be best in order to get partner on lead, to switch to the heart J with 10x in dummy Declarer with x Kxx AK AK109xxx. I know, too far-fetched :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
