gszes Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 I wish I could remember how to do spoiler--- anyway draw 2 round of trumps play off the tops spades and ruff a spade back to hand then lead a dia intending to finesse the J. If the trick wins you can try the club finesse for an overtrick if it loses west will have to give you a ruff and sluff or lead into the club or diamond tenace for your 12th trick Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manudude03 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Win the lead, cash AQ of trumps, when they break, cash the other spade, ruff a spade and then take the diamond finesse. If trumps break 3-0 then, draw the last round, cash the other spade and ruff the last before taking the finesse guaranteeing the contract if LHO had 3 or less spades, otherwise a 75% shot.

johnu Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 2 rounds of trump, 3 rounds of spades ruffing, diamond finesse. If East plays a diamond honor, win and continue diamonds to set up a club pitch, else West is end played. Isn't this more of a beginner-novice type of hand?

billw55 Posted February 7, 2014 Report Share Posted February 7, 2014 Double hook in diamonds is already a huge favorite considering west's failure to lead ♦K, and stripping spades first tops the scales off nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
