Free Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Your opps are one of the best pairs in the country. The auction went:1♣ - 3NT4NT - 6♦6NT - pass Would you opt for an active lead, or a passive lead? EDIT: the scoring is MATCHPOINTSEDIT: opps play natural, 5 card Majors, longest minor, strong NT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finch Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 Am I allowed to look at my hand? In particular, am I allowed to see my diamond holding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMB1 Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 ... and am I allowed to know the form of scoring: match points v IMPs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotShot Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 A hint about the bidding system ( e.g. Strong Club or 5-card majors) of your opps would also be helpful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whereagles Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 am I playing poker or something? why can't I see my hand?? In abstract, active seems better, given there are long suits about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I think both are pretty balance atleast no 6 card suits, so there is no need to be especially active In general I believe leads against slam should be active.So its somewhere in the middle.

Free Posted April 6, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 am I playing poker or something? why can't I see my hand?? In abstract, active seems better, given there are long suits about. Hehe well, I led one way and it turned out bad. Partner had the argument that the auction calls for the other type of lead. He couldn't see my hand either ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted April 6, 2009 Report Share Posted April 6, 2009 I will make an active club lead from my ♣AK. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted April 9, 2009 Author Report Share Posted April 9, 2009 I led active, a ♠ from Kxx-xxx-Jx-xxxxx. RHO made his ♠Q and 6NT+1 was a zero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
