jdonn Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I expect someone out there less lazy than I am to reach a definitive answer on this. R/R imps, North deals. [hv=n=s87543ht982d97ca5&s=sjth65dakq52ckj62]133|200|--- --- P P1♦ P 1♠ P2♣ p 2♦ PP P[/hv] King of hearts lead, low 3 low (udca). 4 of diamonds switch. RHO will cheaply cover whichever you play from dummy. How do you play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fachiru Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 After I win the evil trump switch in hand, I'm playing a ♣ to the Ace ans small ♣ to the J, followed by K of ♣ and a ruff; my hope is to get overruff by the hand longer in ♦ if they turn out 4-2. If all goes according to plan, I'll take 8 tricks; I don't really see another way of making it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echognome Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 I'm not sure what's right, but I would play ♣A, ♣K, and ruff a club. Then I would exit with a heart. My goal is to try to make my little diamonds by ruffing major suits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My goal is to try to make my little diamonds by ruffing major suits. I thought about this, but it feels like a zero line to me. Even when trumps are 3-3, you're going to get a promotion when you come off the board with a major. Still club, club, ruff club looks like a good way to mitigate our downside.

Mosene Posted October 14, 2008 Report Share Posted October 14, 2008 Looks like a hand from the WSMG - Italy - Norway. I think declarer was off 1. I would play to ruff a club and exit in hearts - hoping not to get upcut if LHO has only 2 spades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
