mikeh Posted March 23, 2020 Report Share Posted March 23, 2020 What carding do the opps play and how good do I think they are? I’d know both factors at 5h3 table and the answe s might influence my play. In a vacuum, win the heart, pitching a diamond. Spade A, then diamond to hand, ruff a spade, back in diamonds, ruff a spade. If all is well, cash the club Queen and ruff a diamond and pull trump and claim. Needs considerable good fortune.

Needs considerable good fortune.Sir,I,too, would adopt this line.A few may play the hand in a high cross ruff fashion which may not work always.
