Plenty of chances, what's the best line? Lead 10♠ If you win in hand and play a ♦ then North will win either the Q or the A and play a trump back.

Fluffy Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 I wonder where is the trace on the ruls where you can "make it feel"like ♦J lose hurted you, to induce RHO to cover ♦K later on. I would play a diamond at trick 2 to the jack, win ♣Q, cash ♥A and play♦K from dummy ruffing if not covered, gonna cross ruff red tricks for a while hoping something good. After 4 ruffs I'll be in dummy with: ♠Kxx♥-♦J♣x ♠Ax♥Q♣-♣AK time to cash some trumps and hope someone with 4 spades is squeezed. EDIT: I can improve this by ussing ♣A as entry instead of a ruff earlier on protecting from diamond overruff if RHO has 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antrax Posted October 5, 2012 Report Share Posted October 5, 2012 Why would N cover the ♦K? He sees the T and he knows you must be void since leading K makes no sense otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted October 6, 2012 Report Share Posted October 6, 2012 he might feel stupid if I had ♠Ax ♥Q10xx ♥xx ♣AKxxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antrax Posted October 7, 2012 Report Share Posted October 7, 2012 I'm willing to feel stupid against someone who plays xx opposite KJTxx like that every day of the week, because he's clearly smarter than I am. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just tried diamond ruffs (trying to ruff out the A♦. I didn't back my table presence enough to be sure that North had the Ace). I went down after the 2nd ♦ ruff since the full hand was: [hv=pc=n&s=st43hk6432d43cjt3&w=sk862hadkjt6cq872&n=sj97hj98daq9752c6&e=saq5hqt75d8cak954]399|300[/hv] Never mind.
