dicklont Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 You hold KQ9642 and dummy has 105 in the trump suit.So the opps have AJ873 and you have no clue how they might be divided, apart from their total lack of bidding. You are in dummy, for the first and last time and must play this suit for five tricks.How do you play it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlall Posted April 5, 2010 Report Share Posted April 5, 2010 low to the 9 wins vs: Jx(3), Jxx(3), AJx(3) onside, and stiff J(1), AJ(1), for 11 combos. The other option of low to the king then low to the queen wins against: Jx(3), Axx(3) onside and AJ(1), Axxx(1), J(1), xxx(1) onside for 10 combos. Note that: A ) You should start with low and not the ten because you pick up stiff J onside that way.B ) If you do start with low to the king, then the queen is the best play now by far since they should duck Axx offside, but never Ax.
