HighLow21 Posted March 2, 2014 Report Share Posted March 2, 2014 Squeeze might be on here, but I like the straightforward line of winning, running all trumps except for 1, cashing K♦, and judging from the discards whether to play for hearts 3-3 or try to pin the 10♥ with East.

After much thought, I'm none the wiser. In theory, if LHO has heart-control, then you can succeed on a compound squeeze. That usually involves discarding two ♥s from dummy, so, unless you peek, it isn't a practical proposition. You could try: Cash ♦A, ♠AKQJ, discarding a ♥ and a ♦. Then ♥K . If ♥Q isn't singleton, continue ♥A. If LHO has singleton ♥T, then ruff out RHO's ♥Q, If LHO follows with ♥T, then you have to decide whether he is capable of playing ♥T from ♥QTx. Otherwise, ruff a ♥. If ♥Q and ♥T don't both appear, you need a squeeze or defensive error. Cash ♣A, last ♠, discarding a ♣ (unless you guess that an unlikely double-squeeze has succeeded and the ♣ is now good -- see diagram). Finally ♣K, hoping for a red-suit squeeze.[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
