helene_t Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 [hv=pc=n&s=sq83ht92dkjtckqj2&w=sk62hqj65d93ca643&n=st975h743dq652ct8&e=saj4hak8da874c975&d=e&v=0&b=14&a=1np2cp2dp3nppp]399|300[/hv] According to the DD analysis, 3NT makes on any lead. How? I went down after taking the losing spade finesse. Almost the entire field (fairly weak) made 9 tricks on the lead of a big club. This surprised me as I would expect S to discard a spade on the last heart and declarer to take the spade finesse anyway. Maybe my opponent S was the only one who found the continuation of a small club, while the other S defenders continued another big club, thereby promoting a club trick in dummy? Or is there a more likely scenario? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerriman Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Double dummy, that's pretty cool. However the play starts, if South throws a diamond on the 4th heart, you can eliminate North's clubs then play Ace and another diamond, either throwing in South or setting up a diamond if North overtakes. If South throws a club, you can eliminate South's diamonds and set up a club trick. But non-double-dummy, the opps setting up a club trick for you early seems most likely what happened. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
