How should I have played this?


Recommended Posts

[hv=d=w&v=n&n=shkjtxdakjxcaqjxx&s=st97643ha9xxdqxxc]133|200|Scoring: IMP[/hv]

Bidding:

West did open 1S and North DBL. I did bid 3H after which we ended in 6H without further bidding of opps.

West did lead the Ace.

What is the best line to play this hand.

Remark:

My ending with one trick lost was:

[hv=d=w&v=n&n=shkjtxdakjxcaqjxx&s=st97643ha9xxdqxxc]133|200|Scoring: IMP[/hv]

I can ruff a now with A and finess to make all tricks, but I forgot that J was high. :o

Next time if in dummy AKQJ or something like that, then I will start with playing the lowest of the sequence (I will easier see that the A is high <_< ).

I posted this in the beginner folder because I played it as a beginner, but any advice by experts (Inquiry,...) on how to play this hand best is very welcome.

How I did play it:

I should add that opps play 4-card M system. So 1S opening was 4+ cards S.

After S lead I thought for a couple of minutes if I should play for cross-ruff or setup clubs in dummy. I couldn't make up my mind (probably because it was the last board of the afternoon).

So I did ruff the A. Played A, ruffed a , cashed Q, to dummy with A, ruffed another and back to dummy with K. K was ruffed by LHO and a was returned. I did ruff the in dummy.

[hv=n=shkjdjcqj&s=st97ha9dc]133|200|[/hv]

At this moment I didn't remeber that J was high (Probably I did think too long about this hand).

I can make it now if I ruff a club with A, and take the finesse.

(LHO did have: AKxx-Qxx-xx-Kxxx).

Was this the best line (expect of course the J history :lol: ) or is there a better line to play this hand?
