Can you place the remaining cards? What's your plan? What do you do when South leads the spade Ten at the next trick?

A very reasonable BIL problem. The hand is an open book. If you don't see it, think harder.

 

 

How many clubs have you seen?

IF declarer has only 5 hearts, why didn't partner ruff the club ace?

What is declarers precise distribution?

Who has the spade jack (assume declarer claims when obvious)?

What four tricks do you hope to win?

Seems like people found this one too easy to answer. Indeed one can count out the spades and realize that nothing can be lost by ducking (since spades are 4333 around the table). Declarer isn't likely to get this correct if you duck, but it's a trick to them if you go up.
