Walddk Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 [hv=d=n&v=b&n=sakj84hqj9dk5c983&s=sq7hak1082dj843cj2]133|200|Scoring: IMPS: 4H doubledLead: CA[/hv] An interesting hand from an invisible broadcast from England last night. North opened 1♠, 2♥ from South, 3♥ rebid, raised to 4. West doubled, led ♣A and continued the suit to East's queen. ♣K from East at trick 3, you ruff with the 8 and West discards a spade. Can you take advantage of West's insulting double? What is your plan? Roland Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joker_gib Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 I assume W has ♦A + 5 remaining trumps and at lest 3♠ so I play ♦ to the K and I will finish on a cross ruff even if W return trump after winning the ♦A So 5♥ from hand + 2 ruffs + 1♦ + 2♠ = 10 tricks :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Free Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 Small to ♦K is the best imo, you combine your chances :) and you create an entry while you still have control in trumps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hotShot Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 West seems to be strong, and East showed KQ of ♣. This means that Ace of ♦ has to be with West. So if East holds 5♠ and i can't take 5♥ and 5♠ to go home. I can play small ♦ to the K to make my 10th trick.If West does not hold 5♥ there is no Problem at all.
