shevek Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I think your 5th choice is a low spade, after low heart, ♥K, ♣Q, ♠J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted October 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 Now the only question is: do you consider me to have the same priorities as you? :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pooltuna Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 KJxKQ8xxQxxQx 1♦-1♥-2♦-p2NT-p-3NT unfav. imps, your lead? I kibitzed someone choosing what I'd describe as my 5th choice some argument can be made for a top or bottom ♥. I would consider anything else my 5th choice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shintaro Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 ;) ♥K what else ♥ small most likely gives 2 tricks :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barryallen Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 :( ♥K what else ♥ small most likely gives 2 tricks :) If you are trying to get the contract down, your chances have just diminished with the ♥K. I would plump for the ♠J only to find out a ♦ works best. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlall Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 just lead a small h imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dellache Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 A small ♥ (the one according your CC).A high honor is a nice attempt to block the suit.I don't have any second choice, and would be upset if my teammates would think about any other lead.

HeavyDluxe Posted October 18, 2009 Report Share Posted October 18, 2009 I'd lead a small ♥, too... Though I lack creativity and foresight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy_h Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Low heart. I dislike the ♥K given that our highest heart spot is the 8. Distant 2nd choice ♠J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 I have no idea, what your fourth and fifth choices are.First choice is a low heart, second choice.. okay I have no real second choice, but I would consider a middle spade or a high heart as choices 2 and 3.

gwnn Posted October 19, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 a big spade beats it, anything else doesn't. Partner has QT98xx and out (spades are 2-2). I don't know my top 4 choices but I think the ♣Q would be somewhere around there :( we have a diamond stop because partner has the stiff T and declarer has the jack.

Jlall Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Sounds like a small spade beats it as long as partner makes the expert play of the ten at trick 1 (which is not actually a hard play). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dellache Posted October 19, 2009 Report Share Posted October 19, 2009 Sounds like a small spade beats it as long as partner makes the expert play of the ten at trick 1 (which is not actually a hard play).And which also may sometimes induce declarer into thinking that LHO underled his KQ, when declarer happily scores the first trick with A**J** :) -- dell-ache.
