Fluffy Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) Playing at a low lever field a woman claimed showing only top tricks, hearts as trumps ♠KJ♥J1064♦K♣A But she inadvertelly had ♦6 behind ♣A. This one was easy to solve as when she claimed my partner was on lead, and he just had to play a spade with stiif ♠Q in dummy to prevent a pitch on ♣K, so she had to lose the diamond. But on other ocassions this one can be tricky, even if you had a lot of comunication it could be normal to get rid of every entry to dummy since you don´t know you still have a loser. It could also be normal to play all trumps and pitch ♦QJ10 from dummy before you realice your low diamond exists since you don´t think you need them. What do you think?

ArtK78 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 You have to rely upon the statement made with the claim and the cards presented. If there was no statement, and a hidden card is revealed which could result in the loss of a trick if declarer were not aware of the hidden card, then the trick should be lost.
