I chose to run the spades and clubs to play for a double squeeze, which rather failed as the cards lie, and instead I should play a minor suit squeeze against West. Any suggestions as to how I should know this? TYIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted August 30, 2022 Report Share Posted August 30, 2022 Well simpler was to play ♣AK and ruff one before playing the second trump 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglas43 Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 It would help to see the discards on the spades, but isn't West squeezed anyway? HA, D ruff, Spade, HK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cyberyeti Posted September 4, 2022 Report Share Posted September 4, 2022 It would help to see the discards on the spades, but isn't West squeezed anyway? HA, D ruff, Spade, HK He is, but it's equally reasonable to play for W to be 1363/1462 and when E discards hearts to keep the club guard, leaving the sole heart guard with W you now need to cash the clubs to squeeze him in the reds. I think the guide would be that W would have to discard a club on the spades if he had less than 4, so the minor suit squeeze is the one to play when he doesn't discard one. W is actually under pressure on the penultimate spade as he can't let go a diamond without you ruffing them out and discards a heart which is the revealing card.
