Echognome Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 [hv=n=skxxhkq10xxdaq109xc&s=sa10xxxhxxdxcaqjxx]133|200|1♠ - 2♥ (GF)3♣ - 3♦3♥ - 3♠4♠ - 4NT5♥ - 5♠All Pass[/hv] You probably don't like the bidding. I personally hated it as I had to play in this awful contract. I opened one spade 11-16. Partner bid a GF 2♥ and I showed 5-5 in the blacks any range (11-16). Partner thought 3♦ was natural and I thought it was FSF. Anyways, the bidding pretty much stunk. But make up for it on the play. Small diamond is lead. Good luck!

flytoox Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 This is a difficult one. you have to play and see what is going on. My plan is to play HK, then cashing my heart trick and prepare to crossruff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Echognome Posted May 16, 2005 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 Yes. It is a difficult contract as you have 2 fairly sure losers (A♥ and a spade). Although it is not without its chances. You are grateful you didn't get a trump lead and continuation (after losing A♥) as although that will give up a trump for the defense it would have left you well short of your contract. The crossruff is one way to play it, but I think you can combine some chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
