Reformulating:

1- A & low to the Q
2 -low to Q then A
3 -low to T and finesse the Q
4 - low to Q the low to T
5 - Low to T then A

1: 6666766 (43)
2: 6677566 (43)
3: 7766665 (43)
4: 6677665 (43)
5: 7756666 (43)

2/4 compared. Same on 5. Two differences (5/7). Expected.

1/2/4 compared:

1: 6666766 (43)
2: 6677566 (43)
4: 6677665 (43)

2/4 beat 1 5X. Two swings (12 top):

A. 4 hits the middle once (1), loses to both once (0).
B. 2 loses to both once (0), but ties 1 for the win once (1.5).

So, if all 6♥, 2 wins.

What if 6NT?

A. 4 hits middle once (1), loses to both once (0)
B. 2 loses to both once (0), middle once (1).

What if no slam?

A. 4 gets 0 when 4 was tied
B. 2 gets 0 when 2 was second.

And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

PS just for those who dont know They dont have the same frequency Kx ---Jx is twice as likely then KJ ---xb this is because there is Kx ----Jb and Kb----Jx
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."

Really like this problem and the discussion. Some points are lost on me but I get the gist. Will save this one.
