OleBerg Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 Declaring 5♥ in the South seat, with a ♣K lead, I ruffed and crossed to the ♦J, and was relieved when LHO didn't ruff. I was a bit surprised when RHO ruffed. As hearts was 3-0 there was no recovery. Full deal: [hv=d=e&v=e&n=s1073h10872dj542c105&w=sjhd109763cakqj874&e=sa86542hk96dc9632&s=skq9haqj543dakq8c]399|300|[/hv] Well, all was not lost, even though the teammates performed sub-optimal, missing the grand. 6♣X with thirteen tricks was ok. It's completely James Bond'ish, holding the South hand, and not being able to beat 7♣ on any lead. (From any side.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenrexford Posted August 28, 2009 Report Share Posted August 28, 2009 I suppose there is a moral to this story. When in doubt, it is sometimes more important to declare than to declare effectively. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
