However you lose the first 3 tricks: T1: ♥3 - 2 - A - 7T2: ♦A - 5 - 8 - 4T3: ♦2 - 7 - J - 10T4: ♣7 - A - 4 - Q You are down to: [hv=d=e&v=b&n=sqj93h2d104ca98652&s=sak742hkj76dq75cq]133|200|Scoring: MP(P) - 1♣* - (P) - 1♦**(1♥) - 1♠ - (P) - 4♠All Pass[/hv] Now what?

POJC Posted August 13, 2005 Report Share Posted August 13, 2005 small club ruffed, spade ace, spade queen, another club ruffed etc. Same plan but second club ruff with KING. Wins if trumps no worse than 3-1 and clubs no worse than 4-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PMetsch Posted August 16, 2005 Report Share Posted August 16, 2005 The way I played, I am down if LHO has 3 spades to the ten and RHO has 4 clubs. Better plan: Ruff a club low, now a spade to the queen and if spades 3-1, then a club ruff high. If clubs 3-3 then draw trups and claim. If clubs are 4-2, ruff a heart and ruff another club high. If LHO has 4♣ then spade to the queen, if RHO has 4♣ then a spade to the 9. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
