BBO 1/18

Haven't really been playing, trying to get back in shape.



I thought a heart seemed like a standout lead.

When partner came back his highest club, I should shift to the diamond and continue the attack. It knocks out the entry to the spades, and I know that a club will blow a tempo, allowing declarer to set up a discard in spades.



On this hand, I just wasn't counting declarer's high cards. I know he has KJx of hearts, on the diamond play it looks like he has KQ, and when the third round of spades comes to me, I should know he has AQJ. That's 16, so partner must have the CQ, so I can just abandon diamonds and the defense will cash out.



This one I was just sloppy. Have to unblock the spades before doing anything else.
