Open Question

Question 2

  Your Hand
♠ Q 10 9 3
♥ A 3
♦ Q 10 9 3
♣ 8 7 2 		 
Q: 2 - What do you lead as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
---1 NT
Pass3 NTPassPass
Pass


 Your choice:
A: ♠10 - Look at the bidding sequence. West did not bid Stayman, so he does not have a major. He could have length in the minors, though.

You need to lead the ♠10, since the Q-10-9 form a broken sequence.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 3

  Your Hand
♠ A 6 3 2
♥ Q 6 3 2
♦ Q 6
♣ 8 4 2 		 
Q: 3 - What do you lead as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
---1 NT
Pass3 NTPassPass
Pass


 Your choice:
A: ♥2 - Both suits are majors. How can you choose?

Underleading an Ace is really dangerous. Leading from a Queen is better, and safer.

Your result so far:
Open Question

♠ J 6 2
♥ 7 3
♦ Q J 10 3
♣ K Q J 3

---1♥

 Your choice:
A: ♣K - You should lead from the sequence with the highest honor. It will be easier to set up tricks there.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ 9 6 2
♥ 8
♦ K Q J 6
♣ 9 7 6 3 2

---1♠

 Your choice:
A: ♥8 - A singleton is a great lead. It's better than leading from a sequence, since it gives you a chance to make tricks with your small trumps before declarer can draw them.
