Can't see any cunning play.So.. Cash♠A. Exit in ♥. Assume defenders draw two more rounds of trumps. Cash remaining trumps If RHO discards 2 or more ♥s then exit, again in ♥s.Otherwise ♣K, ♦KQ, and finesse ♣J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Posted March 29, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Can't see any cunning play.So.. Cash♠A. Exit in ♥. Assume defenders draw two more rounds of trumps. Cash remaining trumps If RHO discards 2 or more ♥s then exit, again in ♥s.Otherwise ♣K, ♦KQ, and finesse ♣J. When you exit a heart, LHO hops Q, spade to RHO who wins K. Heart back to 8 and A who plays the 3rd spade. You are 2=2=2=2 remaining. Play on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zelandakh Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 Play on.Given that ratty overcall it seems here that clubs 3-3 is better than the finesse but there is probably a clever line that encompasses some of both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
