East opens the bidding 3,
which not surprisingly South overcalls 4,
West bids 5, and North and East
pass, whereupon South bids 5, and
all pass.
W leads A
which all follow then K to which
E discards a . S ruffs and plays
3 rounds of s to which E and
W follow. Can you make the contract?
This hand is primarily about counting. Count
the E hand: 7 cards in s, ( so W
has a void), 3 cards in s and only
1 card in s, so leaving 2 cards
in s, so the s
break 2-2. Declarer still has a problem because the s
block the suit .Lead 9 ro the A,
play 9 from dummy and discard a
from hand.(loser on loser). Ruff
the return and lead the last
to dummy's K and run off the suit. Contract made
