由坐庄题演变出来的防守问答

题目来源:《Test your play as declarer, volume 1》

6C by south. You, west, holds:
T87xx
AJ9
QJTx
x

Leading diamond Q, you see the dummy:
x
8xx
A9x
KJTxxx

The play went:
---1st round:diamond Q, diamond A, diamond 8, diamond 3
---2nd round: heart 2, heart 7, heart K, ?

Question: 1) what do you play now, win or duck? 2) If you win with heart A, what do you play next?

Take your time~~~

a fun 3-way squeeze, although it may not be necessary

Played with Weslu the other night at BBO acbl tournament, I was sitting South with this board:

S 32 H KQ75 D A1095 C AJ3

And the bidding:

W-N-E-S
1C-1S-p-3N-all pass

CK was lead, and here came the dummy:

S AQJ64 H 1092 D Q82 C 64

I played low from both sides, and West now switch to H3, Dummy H10 won this trick. If spade finesse work, I can count 7 tricks (3 S, 2H, 1D, 1C), so if I can get 2 tricks from D, I am home, so I play DQ from dummy, East put up DK, I can not allow East to play club through my hand, so I win with DA.

Next I made a spade finesse, which won in dummy with SJ. now I need to get a H trick before giving up the play at D, so I play a H to my HQ, West won with HA, and exit with HJ (he still has H8), I won in hand, and played a D to dummy D8, West pitch a club, and East won with DJ and played a club.

I won in hand with CA, these were the last 5 cards:

North

S AQ64
H -
D 2
C -

South

S 3
H 7
D 109
C J

I played D10 then D9, West was squeezed in three suits, I got the rest.

When the dust settled, I found spade is divided 3-3, so just simply repeat the spade finesse will get the same result and save more of your brain cell, but it is fun to produce a 3-ways squeeze.
