gnasher Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I'd lead ♥A, since you didn't give me any trumps. Even if that gets ruffed, forcing dummy might be a good thing to do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 spade A for me to set this we need (3s) or (2s1h) or (1s1h1d/c) or (2s1d/c) Half of these combinations do not include a heart while all of them include aspade. It is far too dangerous to possibly lose tempo with a heart lead sincewe might all too easily be losing our only chance to set the contract.

lalldonn Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 I would lead ace of spades since I don't want my lead to get ruffed. If the ace of hearts lead is ruffed then he can throw a spade on the king of hearts that I probably set up in the process. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilKing Posted October 18, 2012 Report Share Posted October 18, 2012 Spade ace. West will often be 2065 or similar - he might double with a max with less shape to give an option. I'm cashing. Hopefully partner has the ♠K and a diamond trick, and there's still time for a heart, and if it sets up four discards for dummy's club losers, it's an outlier.
