Anyway, supose a club lead, and clubs are 1-2 and hearts are 3-3 at least and diamonds 2-2 at least. How do you tackle spades?. East is somewhere between advanced and expert.

hrothgar Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 I don't see much chance of making this unless LHO has the Ace empty. Cash two top heartsCross with a clubAce of Diamonds, ruff a Diamond, cross with a club, Spade to the 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gnasher Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 I agree with Hrothgar's basic plan, but with trumps 2-1 there's no need to risk a red-suit ruff. Draw two trumps with KQ. ♦A, ♥AKJ, diamond ruff, cross in trumps, spade to the 9. If that wins, we still have an entry to dummy to take another spade finesse.

PhilKing Posted February 15, 2013 Report Share Posted February 15, 2013 Eliminating is soft. I win on table and play a spade at trick two. East does not know we are not 2245, so it's hardly irrational for him to dive in with the ace from AQxx since we could have ♠KJ ♥AQ ♦AQxx ♣KQxxx. In fact I rather expect him to fly ace. If he plays low, I play the nine, of course. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it a forcing club? Is that whypard didn't pass 2♣? And if 2♣ is stayman,why didn't pard rebid 2♦? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
