But if the club king is taken by the ace, you are pretty much obliged to find out where the two red kings are.<\/p>\n<p>Here is how Jean-Christophe Quantin played the deal: spade 10 taken by the king in dummy (the queen appears, suggesting that spades are split 5-2) and clubs to the king taken by the ace. Spade return to the jack and ace. Unsuccessful diamond finesse and heart return. At this stage, Jean-Christophe has two choices: hope that the heart king is in the position he has imagined or that the heart king is bare or second after his hand (with only two diamonds in the hand). He chooses the heart finesse which is statistically more frequent but fails, so his contract doesn\u2019t make.<\/p>\n<p>At another table, Thomas Bessis takes the lead with the spade ace and makes a diamond finesse. He makes the trick on the spade return and draws two rounds of diamonds to discard his losing spade. North ruffs with the 5 and plays spades, ruffed in hand by declarer. Thomas thus plays the heart ace (!) to catch the by then bare king. He continues with the club king to give North the lead and quietly ruff the two losing clubs. Thomas won 64 IMP on this deal compared to 5 other players on the same deal. Now you must be thinking that he is a clairvoyant who can see through the cards! Of course, he is not. But then how did he manage to guess where the cards were? There is nothing easier. He took advantage of an overcall (1&#x2660; by North) that should not have been made. Then a perfect analysis of the situation did the rest.<\/p>\n<p>The full deal was:<\/p>\n<table class=\"noborder\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"padding-top: 6px; padding-left: 15px;\" width=\"190px\" bgcolor=\"#e9e9e9\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-1003\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.funbridge.com\/bundles\/funbridgewebsite\/images\/conventions\/S.png\" alt=\"S\" width=\"18\" height=\"18\"><span style=\"color: #000;
