Many years ago players cited As gospel Quot never Lead away from a King a we know of a defender who forced to launch the attack and looking at All four Kings refused to get the game started nowadays when an aggressive opening Lead is required most experts will prefer to Lead away from a King than from Many Quot safer South pass 2 6 pass holdings. Note North a second double. Since first double was for takeout and South had not yet spoken the second double is still for takeout. Once a Spade fit was located North needed so Little from partner to make game that the jump to r four Spades cannot be faulted. West led the King of Hearty and the sight of Dummy brought Little warmth to the cockles of the defenders hearts. Obviously there were no tricks to be had in Trumps and the fact that the Queen of clubs was destined to drop meant no tricks from that suit either. If the contract could be Defeated the defenders were going to need three ticks from the Diamond suit. Since Declarer was missing at most a the Ace King of the suit the third trick would have to come from a defensive Niff. Only one lie of the cards offered any Chance of that East would have to hold specifically a double ton Ace of diamonds. Having worked that out West wasted no time shifting at trick two to a Low Diamond. East Rose with the Ace returned the suit to partners King and a Diamond continuation permitted East to Ruff for the setting trick. Q.

Fortunately there is a cheap one available four clubs. When you voluntarily remove from game into a Par score it is a sign of strength not weakness. Q.

What action do you take enter the auction is fraught with danger suits Aren t breaking and you could easily be held to six tricks. But refusing to compete runs a far bigger risk you Don t need much from partner to make a game and partner might even have enough for slam yet be unable to act. Bid four Spades. Q. A both vulnerable As South you hold 42 7kq65 0akqj987 4a partner opens the bidding with one Spade. What do you respond Are All sorts of ways to tackle this hand starting with a jump of three diamonds. However we like the straightforward approach of a jump to four no Trump asking for aces. We would Settle in six diamonds if partner shows one seven if two and take our chances on not losing a heart. Q. A As South vulnerable you hold 06 7q4 0a98 0kqj10763 the bidding proceeded South West North East 1 0 pass 10 pass 2 0 pass 3 7 pass what do you bid now. have one Story to Tell and Only one bid four clubs it is too. Risky to bid three no Trump with Only a single Diamond stopper which might be forced out before your clubs Are established. Q. A a neither vulnerable As South you hold 4943 7kq95 0k94 0q76 partner opens the bidding with one heart and the next hand passes. What do you respond have excellent support for partner and a fair hand but the Only sensible bid available is a raise to two hearts. This is a maximum fora single raise. Bear in mind that your Lack of a ruffing value is a flaw. 1c i 1 i a v y y. In rail fraud when you gaze at Lecin of Lenca Orve Winch the sheep at Light Are leaping Hanzon Ai fails Acner a Stew.
