In the East defense against Four Spades, play the deuce of hearts at trick one to induce a club lead from the partner and limit declarer to ten tricks. If declarer wins, the partner should shift to clubs at trick two to threaten a two-trick heart/club/diamond set. As declarer, with West on lead after North pulls hearts, win the jack of hearts with the king and drive a low spade toward dummy to safeguard against a complete trump breakdown. avoid leading the ace or a high trump from either hand to prevent North from scoring three trump tricks. Tomorrow: No way out.
