Hi all
a fast update from Juan Les Pins… after the first day of Patton we are first.
But now I’d like to prove you 😉
Board 1
You are sitting West and you have these cards:
And the bidding went:
What would you lead?
When you decide, try to engage in this other board…
Board 2
1
 = 4+ balanced hand
What would you lead?
Tomorrow the solution… 😆
Fulvio
Tomorrow just arrived…
Your answers on Facebook were very heterogeneous… bridge is uneven, but I’d like to give you a general suggestion:
When the opponent is playing Doubled, the best lead is usually Trumps.
Obviously some exceptions exist and they depend on the bidding and on your cards, but take this as a general rule, especially when:
– the opponent is defending
– the opponent has less points than us.
Here is an exception: when you have many Trumps with a fork, by leading Trumps you are risking to give a trick away, then it’s better for you to opt for a different lead and wait for a partner’s trumps return.
The complete deals:
QUIZ 1:
In this board missing the Trump lead means giving the contract away.
QUIZ 2:Â
In this second board, leading Trumps doesn’t make the difference, but the suggestion is anyway good 😉
See you later for some updates.
