What should West lead against 5 X on the auction above?


Klinger M 2

A double by a pre-emptive bidder commonly shows a void and asks partner not to lead the suit bid by the defence.

West duly led a club and chose the 3 as suitpreference for diamonds.

East ruffed and returned a diamond. Message received and understood.

The next club ruff sank the contract for +200. A nice defence.
