The
Six Diamonds Slam Strategy With Extra Chance
In a six diamond contract the declarer had a winning path by cashing the ace and queen of spades before leading the queen of hearts. By forcing West to win a club through a ruff and discard, South risks. The improvement is to cash both spade honors first to keep East’s king out of play and to maximize the 50 50 chance West holds the heart king, ensuring slam if West has it and avoiding harm if East does.
