How do you play the minors for two losers? Assume that you got no useful information from the bidding, and that there is no chance for endplays.

The easiest way to count losers is to line up the people who talk about loser count, and count them. -Kieran Dyke

With plenty of side entries, low to the D8:
- if it holds, back to hand and run the DJ (trying to pin doubleton DT)
- if it does not hold, repeat the D finesse
I think there should be close to 75% to play D for 2 losers only and discard a club loser on the good diamond; of course if LHO wins and leads early a club through dummy, you have to guess the clubs before having developed a long diamond.
