Hand 1
Must rise with AD!!
Partners 4C ( standard attitude) shows he does not have KCso no future in that suit
. Ducking loses the chance to switch to a H when partner has the AH.
Declarers hand was S. QJ10987 H. Q92 D.2 C. AK2
Hand 2
Must Duck!
Key here is if you win AS you cannot cash any fast tricks, hence you should take it slowly, even though you lose your AS you give declarer only 1 S trick instead of 2.
Declarers hand was S. 3 H. K107643 D. AQ8 C. Q72
Play Problem:
Always remember you are playing TEAMS IMP scoring therfore 'safety plays' are paramount!!!!
Play Small D and duck all round...guarantees against 5-0 split onside, if off-side there is nothing anyone can do.
