paulg Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 Having watched much of the Polish finals this weekend I am interested in their opening lead methods. I've seen them mentioned occasionally in these forums (but could not find an extensive thread) and wondered what the current standard is, and are they the same as Slawinski's Combine leads? It's certainly interesting to lead low from doubleton. I also wonder what is led from Hxx, since Slawinski suggests lowest but I've seen many lead second from this too? Also, what are people's experience of seeing a low lead that is either doubleton or from an honour? Thanks, Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1eyedjack Posted May 3, 2004 Report Share Posted May 3, 2004 They are not that far removed from "Liggy" leads that Glyn Liggins played with Fawcett, Crouch, Dyson et al (last I heard, anyway): When not leading from a sequence: Lead bottom from any even holding, else: XXxxhXxhxxXx(xx(xx..))xXxxx(xx(xx..)) This seems to dispel most confusion. Quality of an even suit is not known, as you lead xxxX as from hxxX But no method is without some bad options.

Trpltrbl Posted May 11, 2004 Report Share Posted May 11, 2004 Most lead 2nd from Odd. And 3rd from even.But you better be experienced cause you gotta pay good attention to a lot of little cards. Mike :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
