Scoring: IMP

1D-1S
2NT-3C
3S-4S

LHO start ♣2 (3th/5th) for RHO's Q. How do you plan the play?
This is part 2 of the 2 hands given to me after tournement (..and a couple of beers).
(Probably experts will easily find this...Try it without looking at other answers.
PS: one of the 2 hands probably comes from a book.. I don't know which one..
It's IMP's scoring!!

I ruff high, pull trump and take the diamond hook.

edit: I forgot to say how I play trick 1.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

I would duck the lead, later I will finesse a diamond.

Ducking a clubs will fail only if W can ruff a dimond at trick 2 and the ♥A is offside.

Taking with the A♣,ruffing a clubs and pulling trumps fill fail if the ♦Q if off side followed by a club switch and h back (losing Q♦+1♣+2♥)

Taking with the A♣, ruff clubs big,trumps back to hand 2nd ♣ruff and low ♦ will fail if they get ♦Q ♦ruff + 2♥.


line 1 is clearly better
From Psych "I mean, Gus and I never see eye-to-eye on work stuff.
For instance, he doesn't like being used as a human shield when we're being shot at.
I happen to think it's a very noble way to meet one's maker, especially for a guy like him.
Bottom line is we never let that difference of opinion interfere with anything."
