wyman Posted March 27, 2012 Report Share Posted March 27, 2012 I'd just lead a normal count card in spades (rather than an honor, so that if there's a stiff in dummy maybe declarer won't be able to place the spade honors and will misguess the clubs).

BunnyGo Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I'd lead a heart. I actually think there's good merit to all 3 of them--for different reasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codo Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 The chance that heart tricks are vanishing looks greater then the chance that spade tricks are even avaiable. So I try the systemic hearts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoetze Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I look at my watch. If the seconds are 0-29 I will play ♣Q on first round. If 30-59 I will play ♣J on first round. OK, now I lead, uhm.... a heart? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_20686 Posted March 28, 2012 Report Share Posted March 28, 2012 I would lead a trump. No strong feeling particularly, but it seems like they might just not have enough tricks. I mean they both took NF actions at the 3 level (3C, passing 3S) so I think partner might have a pretty decent hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OK, now I lead, uhm.... a heart? I've wondered if using a watch as a randomizing device is legal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cthulhu D Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 What a tell though - if oppo knows you Edit: why not use if the board number is even or odd to? Could also use if you or opps are vul or not. Even better as the board will be infront of you. Or low if even and vul or odd and not vul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 What a tell though - if oppo knows you it matters much less than you think. if you always played the jack from QJ you would make almost exactly the same number of tricks, I think it was 12/13 than you make for playing totally random.

Fluffy Posted March 29, 2012 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 [hv=pc=n&s=sjt752h753d862cqj&w=s83ha2dk943cat542&n=sak96hkqt64dt75c3&e=sq4hj98daqjck9876]399|300[/hv] spade jack is not good enough, partner wins ♠K and afraid of declarer having ♠Qxx switched to ♥K. ♠2 is the card that beats the contract.

gnasher Posted March 29, 2012 Report Share Posted March 29, 2012 I think you should get a better partner. He was playing you for something like J10xx xxx Jxxx Qx. That doesn't look like a 2♠ bid to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
