1 NTPass3 NTPass

 Your choice:
A: ♠2 - You have the same holding in Diamonds and Spades. How can you choose between them?

Look at the bidding. They didn't use Stayman, meaning they won't have a major suit fit. Therefore, lead a major.

 Your choice:
A: ♦A - You have the choice between an Ace-King sequence (two touching cards are enough to form a sequence against a suit contract), and a singleton. Which one should you choose?

You must lead the Ace. At the sight of the dummy, you can then decide if it's right to play your singleton, or if you need to continue with Diamonds.

♥ Q J 10 9
♦ J 10 9 8

1♠Pass2♠Pass
4♠PassPassPass

Open Question

Question 5

♠ K Q 6 2
♥ 7 2
♦ A 6 2
♣ Q J 10 6 		 
Q: 5 - What do you lead as West?
SouthWestNorthEast
---Pass
1♥Pass2♥Pass
4♥PassPassPass


 Your choice:
A: ♣Q - You have a two-card sequence in Spades, and a three-card sequence in Clubs. Therefore it's a lot safer to lead a Club.

A Spade lead would give a trick away too often, should declarer have the Ace and dummy the Jack for instance.
