eagles123 Posted August 27, 2015 Report Share Posted August 27, 2015 This hand just came up on BBO, it was the last board of a TM and it didn't particularly matter but I totally fluffed this hand, just interested how I should approach it [hv=pc=n&w=skt86hkt3daj9ca83&e=sq95ha874d82cqj95&d=w&v=n&b=12&a=1np2cp2sp3nppp]266|200[/hv] lead is Diamond K if you duck they switch to JH thanks Eagles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mgoetze Posted September 5, 2015 Report Share Posted September 5, 2015 Win with ♥A, run the ♣Q, if it holds small club to the Ace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My guess: Win ♥A. Run ♣Q. If that wins, then finesse ♥T. If that wins, then run ♠8, hoping to make 3 x ♠s, 3 x ♥s, 1 x ♦s and 2 x ♣s [/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil_20686 Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Surely you just put the K on the heart J and run the Ten. Pretty unthinkable that south has QJ9(x) and played a heart. Its hard to imagine that I will lose more than one trick in every suit at this point. The black suit pip position is really good too. An alternative is to win the heart K and play a spade to the Q. If this holds I can run the spade 9 next, since north cannot profitably attack hearts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilkaz Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 Pretty unthinkable that south has QJ9(x) and played a heart. Actually it is quite unthinkable that S has QJ9(x) and played a ♥ since North shifted to the J♥ at trick 2. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gszes Posted September 9, 2015 Report Share Posted September 9, 2015 I chose to duck and at trick 2 would win the heart ace. We are in big trouble if south has the spade A since they can rise with it and return a dia to make our lives really miserable. That means we almost have to assume N has the spade A and that means our best shot appears to be playing for 3s 3h 1d 2c so trick 3 go with the spade 9 intending to finesse. We are trying to score up tricks while keeping south off lead and this approach gives us a great chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
