whereagles Posted February 28, 2010 Report Share Posted February 28, 2010 I got the feeling the ♠Q will hold, so I'll play that and follow up with a club to the ten... Didn't we kind of... overbid this one? :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't we kind of... overbid this one? :) Yes, needs to take first trick with the A or the Q to have 2 entrees for finessing trumps (Ruffing 3rd ♥ being the 2nd)...bidding was me with Jack. (I'm trying to practice counting opps shape better) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloa513 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 At least every lead probably is awful for defenders and there is decent number of options although you'll most of them. I guess you got to try Q of spades- if that holds. What about run the nine of clubs to double finesse as dummy is way short of entries. Will declarer's RHO split honour if he has both club honours?

cloa513 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 If it ends in hand with the ace then AK hearts and ruff if need be you'll going to rely on that anyway so no point delaying. If Q hearts drops then the choices are rough high or low club lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloa513 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 I can't see anyway to make it unless heart break perfectly and double finesse works. Otherwise play is only damage limitation unless LHO wins and blunders by trying diamonds rather than continuing spades. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
