You can see the first two tricks by clicking the next button. They lead a diamond and both follow low to the first round of spades. Take it from there. I rate this one about on par with the other 7♠ contracts I have posted tonight. I will post a couple tougher ones tomorrow (well, later today). Just for the record, I do not approve of the auction which is shown. This is what happened at the table, however. [/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antrax Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 Trump to ace. If 0-3 I'm down. Trumps 2-1: ruff club, trump to dummy, ruff club, ruff ♦T, ♣A pitch ♥. If clubs have the decency to be 4-3 or ♣K comes down, I found a home for my second heart and the third goes on the ace.If trumps are 3-0 my third dummy entry is also a trump, and I might go down if W has a club singleton.If ♣K is with 5 card length I fall back on heart finesse, same as I do if trumps are 3-0 and the ♣K doesn't show up after ruff ruff ace. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fluffy Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 using all entries properly is more important than counting :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted May 21, 2014 Report Share Posted May 21, 2014 using all entries properly is more important than counting :) Until you establish dummy's long suit and claim, and the defence point out they've still got a trump, then the other defender points out that they have one too :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
