Zelandakh Posted October 24, 2013 Report Share Posted October 24, 2013 Win the ace of diamonds, cash the heart King and duck a spadeMuch too simple. GIB says you can also make it playing a small spade at trick 2. That seems much more interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Double dummy you can pull trump back to hand, heart king to the ace, heart. If South flies queen, ruff, cross trump ace and duck a heart endplaying North into giving you a ruffsluff to the board. If South plays low you duck into North. North then either sets up hearts with the trump ace as entry or concedes a ruffsluff allowing you to set up hearts with the trump ace intact.
