gnasher Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I'd lead a club. I nearly led a heart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mtvesuvius Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I never get good results from leading these interior sequences. I'll lead a club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dellache Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 ♦8. Neutral. I hate those overrated H9xx leads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanoi5 Posted March 6, 2011 Report Share Posted March 6, 2011 I'd never succeded when leading from a J. I'd lead a heart, the 10, unless playing journalist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffy Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 if leading a major I'd always pick a spade to keep the K109 strenght, is this wrong? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluecalm Posted March 7, 2011 Report Share Posted March 7, 2011 T♥, spade is probably close.In such problems it's important if they open 1NT wit 5M and if they play puppet stayman (if they do then major suit lead is more attractive). EDIT:My oracle says, that my intuition was wrong.Assuming no puppet stayman and 5M possible for 1NT opener the results of simulation for 5k hands are:4♠ 854T[hearts 7825♦ 8503♣ 754 I change my mind to spade especially because simulation assumptions are the worst for major suit lead (no puppet, always open 1NT with 5M, always bash 3NT wit 4M-3-3-3).
