quiddity Posted August 21, 2010 Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 I assume west overcalled 1♥ directly? Lead a diamond now to remove declarer's entry to the board. He can play the last diamond winner (or lose it), but we ruff and force with the club so he has to lead spades from hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
