the hog Posted May 9, 2014 Report Share Posted May 9, 2014 There are many cases, eg killing an entry to dummy egAJTxxxx You hold Kxx, play the K if the lead is to dummy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Siegmund Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Almost all the same times that it is right to lead high. Situations like the_hog's are sometimes hard to spot on opening lead, of course :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gwnn Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 Danger hand high! (play high when you have to win the trick NOW otherwise your entry will be useless) http://www.bridgeace.com/Lessons/BOLS/1989_Rodwell_Danger_Hand_High.pdf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveMoe Posted May 30, 2014 Report Share Posted May 30, 2014 To keep partner off an end-play...To interfere with Declarer's attempt at an avoidance play...To create a late entry in partner's hand (Say K from Kx)...To block dummy's suit...To limit the run of a long suit (AK109xx in dummy, 0/1 in declarer hand.... Declarer leads 10! You play J from Jxx or Jx but duck from Q/Jxxx).To waste a dummy entry... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
