pooltuna Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Well in this particular auction I don't think lightner applies nevertheless I think a ♣ will not work so I will try the other major Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
655321 Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 Partner has made a 100% obvious lightner double, however we seem to have a guess between the red suits. If partner is doubling on a void a heart seems marginally better, if partner is doubling on a red suit AK then a diamond seems marginally better. I will guess to lead a heart, but really a diamond seems just as reasonable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted September 20, 2010 Report Share Posted September 20, 2010 partner failed to open 1♦, I think he is more likelly to hold ♥AK than ♦AK. Also he is more likelly to have a heart void, so heart it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rduran1216 Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 its a total red suit guess, LHO has a void in clubs and a strong side suit to go with his spade support. I'd go with diamond, partner stands to be void with some kind of 2506 or 1507 type hand. Although the position could be switched in favor of a heart void, I think its more likely partner opened a 65 or 75 hand 1C because he had a major to go with it.

Free Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 A small ♦ feels better, because I think partner Doubled on values rather than a void. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hanp Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 Too bad we have 5 of them, a bit much to lead the king and take a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeh Posted September 21, 2010 Report Share Posted September 21, 2010 I lead a heart.....if he has red AK, it's a guess...if he has a red suit void, it is slightly more likely to be in hearts than in diamonds. So assuming that my lead matters, there is a small but unambiguous edge to the heart lead: imo this is a classic instance where the decision is close yet clear.
