Jacoby on Bridge shows defense to lead clubs
In this bridge excerpt, the best defense is to lead another club forcing South to play his king. West ruffs, returns a spade, and South rests with dummy’s ace. South then draws trumps, ruffs a club to set up dummy for discards, and sheds his last spade. If South plays clubs early, West ruffs and spades again, risking loss. North’s bold two clubs bid hints at a very strong hand, showing the opponent’s suit despite lacking high cards.
