We are in a 4♥ contract and we have two promising side suits we might develop: Spades or Clubs. How can we choose which to develop? Do we have to choose or might we me able to develop both?
With limited entries back and forth, it is tricky for us to plan our play here. How would you decide your strategy for playing this hand?

Thanks Bajir and Curt! I think a little of good luck is welcome too.
Bajir has a wonderful way about speaking and a beautiful smile!❤️
he is a great host for sure...you can tell he loves the game...and why not - it is a great game!
Interesting hand. Why would West not grab their club Q from Qx when you play towards Tx in dummy?!
Thanks you Bajir. I ll play More relax
That was interesting Bajir
Perhaps the title should have mentioned cross-ruffing?
When you get dow to 5 cards left, those spades on the table are the only ones left and there are only two hearts out. Cash KH, then cross to the AH and run the spades.
yep - spot on - they were risking the contract not drawing trumps.
Not all. There was 1 low spade which would have been pulled by the king
@@ramonquennell3229 What I meant was, they were good.
@@magicmerl7749 yeah of course
I would find this difficult to play unless I knew what the bidding was?
This is good but towards the very end ge could havw just won the trumps and been in dumby and then play of the spades which were good
Spade has only one problem, the A. Clubs has two problems A, Q. Both have the same distribution problem… so spades is project suit KISS. But is bridge a KISS game????
Well, of course a tricky hand. The contract was achieved due to poor defence. If west had stuck to the basic principles of play, they could have got 4 tricks. When club was led from the hand, west should have covered it by queen as he had only two carder queen in clubs. No use saving singleton queen and letting go a sure trick which would have defeated the contract.
Rest everything was nice😊
Jajaja I always compare! And think that I was wrong
how would you play it graciela - because I don't agree with this method...the result was good - but I think that is largely irrelevent.
I don't think this was the right way to play the hand - the spade was correct and the diamond ruff...but I think declarer should play the King of hearts and then cross to the hearts and play for a normal 3-2 heart break and a normal 4-3 spade break.
Of course this line goes off - but it doesn't mean it is technically the wrong line. The trouble with hands like this is - when you are told you went off - then clearly the correct line is clearly the wrong line - as why would you be asking me about the hand...sometimes in bridge you go off when you play perfectly and somebody else makes when they take a bad line - that's just bridge. The danger of playing across ruff is - you could easily get over-ruffed....as Curt says when missing 3 aces and the trumps break 4-1...you are likely going off. I would be going off in this contract for sure...and I wouldn't be losing sleep about it.
This is like watching a film which is 3 hours long but would be just as good if it was only 2 hours.
