Jinksy Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Pass. It might be going off on the right lead, but I don't have much confidence about what that will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wank Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 5 spades look nice, but they don't really translate into tricks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesleyC Posted June 30, 2016 Report Share Posted June 30, 2016 I'm passing and leading ♣A. Also I would definitely have overcalled 1S heh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmnka447 Posted July 4, 2016 Report Share Posted July 4, 2016 Pass. Don't want to give declarer any clue that things might be awry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fluffy Posted July 5, 2016 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2016 http://www.eurobridg...rd=003.23..1210 http://www.bridgebase.com/tools/handviewer.html?linurl=http://www.bridgebase.com/tools/vugraph_linfetch.php?id=45493 (board 3) Another hand that is just 1 off so doesn't matter much. Or so I though, upon inspecting the vugraph match it looks like my attempt to prevent ruffs in dummy by drawing a trump was not as "safe" as I though, and gave declarer a chance to make... had he know spades were 5-1. Doubling was dangerous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
