JLOGIC Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Jack of diamonds is automatic to me. Slave to the 4 card sequence I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kayin801 Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 I like a systemic low club. I feel like every time I don't lead from a high honor against this auction I lead into AKQ in dummy opposite declarer's stiff or void, and we have the heart entry to push a diamond through later. Would rather lead ♦J than a heart or the club K. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 dia J with most of the opps power being with rho anything but a dia carries with it a huge risk of givingaway a badly needed trick to the opps. The dia J can cost but only if rho has AKQ and gets someimmediate pitches we could have won otherwise. Yes rho can hole AQ or KQ and a dia lead will benon productive at best but there are many more holdings where the dia J wil be safe even if not usually a huge producer of tricks. A low club with 5 clubs just seems like a play with a tiny chance of success that carries the greatest risk of disaster. A small heart is probably similar but at leastit has a better chance of being a quick trick taker (maybe even setting an otherwise unbeatablehand) with the heart A being less so and a fair amount less risk than a small heart). If i had only 4 clubs vs 5 i think a low club would offer a much greater chance of trick takingfor the risk involved (similar to the heart A but better since it requires less from p to besuccessful.

Phil Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 My robot lead is the ♥A. Maybe its a MP tendency, or maybe I've seen ♦AKQx come down too often and declarer goes ♦, pitch, pitch as we seethe, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
