sfi Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Nicely done! The defence can prevail if the club 6 and 7 are swapped, can't it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige1 Posted October 1, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 The defence can prevail if the club 6 and 7 are swapped, can't it? Gib confirms your conclusion :)The ♣8 is what I call a pivotIn the actual hand, dummy's clubs were a bit stronger. Nevertheless, to make the contract, Tony Forrester still had to play for the entry-fork-strip double-squeeze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted October 1, 2019 Report Share Posted October 1, 2019 Gib confirms your conclusion :)The ♣8 is what I call a pivotIn the actual hand, dummy's clubs were a bit stronger. Nevertheless, to make the contract, Tony Forrester still had to play for the entry-fork-strip double-squeeze Is this really a double squeeze ? E is not squeezed at all, merely forked, and W is squeezed in 2 ways, there's a stepping stone in there which is what prevents him discarding all his clubs Also it's a good piece of card reading, how do you tell the difference between: [hv=pc=n&w=shj9dct9&e=shdqcq65]266|100[/hv] and the same ending with the 10♣ and Q♦ swapped ? The first you play ace and another club for the fork, the second you cash the ace of clubs and then play 2 top hearts to make the diamond ace by stepping stone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
