Four Hearts Triumph With Strategic No Finesse
In this bridge problem, West leads clubs and you win with ruff and stack the spades, then play the nine of hearts from dummy. By rejecting the heart finesse and using the lead to deduce West’s distribution, you establish four hearts and avoid a likely down one, illustrating that the correct play hinges on bidding context and careful trick-by-trick analysis rather than a routine finesse.
