lalldonn Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 The jlogic gnasher argument seems a bit pointless. If you cash not-quite-all the tricks and think you have already read the hand, then you can act on that. If you think you haven't yet read the hand (since they have thrown a bunch of spades) but you will be able to read the hand after taking a few more tricks, then you can act on that. I don't think they are even disagreeing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think they are even disagreeing. Yeah exactly, why do I have to commit to one line or another right now on a forum post? In real life you can choose based on the info you have and how confident you are. Does anyone actually plan out the entire play at trick 1 in spots like this?

Finch Posted April 18, 2012 Report Share Posted April 18, 2012 If you compare Francis strategy with mine Francis will receive 100% of the time average plus OFF TOPIC RANT Who is Francis?I am one of the few posters (you are another) who explicitly posts under their full name. As I bother to do that, please do me the courtesy of SPELLING IT CORRECTLY. /RANT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

han Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 That's what you get for spelling your last name as well, it's distracting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
