Throw the most attention getting card you can spare. Note North a decision to raise South s one no Trump opening bid to game. With Only seven High card Points it was unlikely the combined strength of the hands would be enough to produce 11 tricks whereas nine tricks could be there for the taking even if Declarer has to surrender a trick in diamonds. On the first trick East a King of hearts lost to the Ace and Declarer led the Jack of diamonds from hand. Since it appeared that East had a Diamond trick West dearly wanted partner to discontinue the heart attack. Obviously Declarer held the Queen of hearts so another heart Lead would be tantamount to handing Declarer the contract on a Platter. It was crucial to get East to switch. Therefore West discarded the two of hearts. When Declarer ran the Jack of diamonds to the Queen East had received the message loud and Clear that partner did not want a heart returned. Unfortunately he elected to shift to the Queen of clubs a after All he needed Little More than for partner to have the Ace in that suit to defeat the contract. Sadly that was not the Case so Declarer cantered Home. West did not just want a shift a he wanted partner to switch to Spades How could he Tell partner not Only that hearts offered no future but that a Spade shift was essential easy enough. On the Jack of diamonds West should have discarded the Jack of hearts that would have conveyed a double message a partner hearts Are no Good. Also i want you to attack the higher of the two unplayed suits a a a Spade from East would have netted the defenders four tricks in the suit for a one trick set As Long As the defenders took the necessary care to unblock the suit.
