Scoring: IMP


they bid 1♦-2♣;2♦-5♦

You lead ♥A (do you agree? how strongly do you disagree?) and it goes A,T,4,8

You have agreed to "2/1 udca" with your partner.

-What should the 4 mean? (What does it mean with your favorite partner?)
-What do you continue?
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

I love the lead. Partner's card should be suit preference. The 4 looks medium, but south could be falsecarding holding the 3 and 2 so it could well be low. If partner had the spade ace and wasn't ruffing a club he would certainly play a higher heart than that, so I return my lowest club, the lowest so that when partner ruffs he doesn't try to underlead a spade back to me for another ruff. I'm playing partner for AQxxx KJ964 xxx -, or so (a very good hand to pass over 2♣, at least if it's game forcing, IMO.)
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

I agree with the lowest club. There's no way we're defeating the contract without a trump trick so I have to check for the possible club void in partner's hand.

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

If we have a trump trick and the ace of spades. How will these tricks ever disappear?
But if we have a club ruff, this trick may well disappear if we do not switch to a club.
