| TRT 5
Bidding : 1♦ - (1♠) - DBL* - 2♥ - 4♥ Lead = Q♠
* = Negative DBL | ||
| Declarer ♠ K 3 ♥ K 10 6 4 ♦ A K 10 8 ♣ 8 5 2 | Dummy ♠ A 6 ♥ Q 9 5 2 ♦ 7 4 ♣ A Q 10 7 6 | |
| Drawint trumps holding K and Q only in pposite hands Win with the K♠, then lead 4♥ to Dummy's Q♥. If the Queen wins, play a low trump back to Declarer's 10♥ hoping to drop the A♥. Double finesse the ♣s. (When holding the trump 10 as well, usually play low to the other hand, then 2nd round play low towards the 10, for a possible finesse against Opponent's Jack.) | ||
| TRT 6 Bidding : 1♠ - 3♠ - 4♠ Lead : K♥ | ||
| Declarer ♠ A K J 10 7 4 ♥ 9 5 3 ♦ 6 ♣ A 8 5 | Dummy ♠ Q 9 2 ♥ A 8 6 ♦ A Q J 10 ♣ 10 6 4 | |
|
Ruffing finesse to discard Declarer's losers Declarer wins the 1st trick with Dummy's A♥, and leads A♦, then Q♦ while discarding a ♥ in Dummy. (You may prefer to first draw 2 rounds of trumps for safety, but leave Q♠ in Dummy as entry to Dummy to cash the ♦ winners.) | ||
| TRT 7 Bidding : 1♥ - 4♥ Lead : K♠ | ||
| Declarer ♠ 9 4 3 2 ♥ A J 10 9 7 ♦ A K ♣ K 3 | Dummy ♠ 5 ♥ Q 8 6 5 ♦ 10 6 4 3 ♣ A 8 7 6 | |
|
Ruffing in Dummy before drawing trumps Ruff three ♠s in Dummy before drawing trumps. (Normally the lead would be a small trump, but not when holding ♥ K 3.) | ||
| TRT 8 Bidding : 1♠ - 2♠ - 3♠ - 4♠ Lead : Q♣ | ||
| Declarer ♠ A K 7 5 3 ♥ A 6 5 ♦ A 8 7 6 ♣ 2 | Dummy ♠ Q J 2 ♥ 9 8 7 ♦ K 9 3 2 ♣ K 10 4 | |
|
Loser on Loser : do not ruff Cover Q♣ with Dummy's K♣. When East wins and leads 7♣ do not ruff in Declarer's hand but discard a small ♥ loser instead. This will promote Dunny's 10♣ to a winner.
