Question
This deal occurred in a large online Open Pairs game in August 2021. Partner is on lead against two diamonds.
Partner leads the King of spades (three, seven, Ace). Declarer leads the seven of clubs (four, ten, Ace) and you return the nine of spades to the Jack and partner’s Queen. Partner cashes the ten of spades and everyone follows. Now partner leads the Jack of clubs to dummy’s Queen; declarer throws a heart. Now the King of clubs; declarer throws the Jack of hearts and partner follows. Now a heart to declarer’s Ace and the King of diamonds to partner’s Ace. Partner leads the 13th spade.
Will you play a heart, or will you ruff?
