Queen of Spades at Trick Two Defeats Four Hearts Contract
Bridge expert Steven Becker explains a simple yet overlooked defense. In a four hearts contract South faced a trump lead and could force at least 10 tricks by leading the queen of spades at trick two. If East or West held the spade king, the defense could still hold South to nine tricks. The article emphasizes the need to apply the queen of spades early despite its unusual lead, as the proper play secures the majority of tricks.
