eagles123 Posted July 30, 2017 Report Share Posted July 30, 2017 Assume Photo is LHO, I'd lead a small heart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige1 Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 [hv=pc=n&w=sajxhkjxxd9xxcktx&d=n&v=n&b=5&a=3cp3nppp]133|200| Swiss Teams Lead 1. Assuming the auction on the left, I rank1. ♥. Attacking. Requires only 1 honour from partner. Your ♣K seems badly placed, so you might need to take the 1st 5 tricks.2. ♦ Safe. And partner might have overcalled or doubled with majors.3. ♠A. Might surrender a trick and a tempo. But might give you a 2nd chance to get the lead right.4. ♠x. Unlikely to work.5. ♣. :) [/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Badger Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 Small ♥ looks standard, but if declarer/dummy has ♥A and Q it's not going anywhere surely? Has dummy a singleton ♥Q and leading ♥K was preferable? Not something I would have considered at the table. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tramticket Posted July 31, 2017 Report Share Posted July 31, 2017 I'm tempted by A♠ to have a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see us beating this without some luck and a great deal of aggression. I'm leading a spade honour. Probably the A in practice, but playing the J might put declarer's Kxx under more pressure if P can overtake from such as QT9xx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gszes Posted August 1, 2017 Report Share Posted August 1, 2017 I have no strong reason to assume ANYTHNG will work. That means I go back to basics and try leading low from longest and strongest (low heart depending on your lead system). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wank Posted August 5, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 5, 2017 This is the only one I think was an error - I led a plebeian heart. I think ace of spades must be right. With kxx clubs under the adverse preempt they're making if we can't cash 5 immediately. If partner has the ace of hearts he'll still have it at T2.
