Contract:4S
West leads AK hearts, low club.
East wins AC, exits with low club.
Whats your best line of play.
**********************************
Ruff in dummy. A low spade to the K reveals the bad break. Continue
with a diamond finesse. Pitch a heart or club on the AD. Ruff a diamond
in hand. Lead the TS. If West ducks, finesse again and claim on dummy.
When west covers, win with the AS and ruff a diamond with the 9S.
Everyone is down to three cards. In hand are the TH and JC. Dummy has
J7S and JD. Poor west cant keep 84S,JH,QC. If west pitches a club, I lead
my winning club. If west pitches a heart, I lead my winning heart. If west
underruffs, I enter dummy with a ruff. Draw trump. And claim.
 
I received one correct solution from Jeff Halle.
