There are many different types of squeeze play. The basic ones usually involve one opponent having to part with a guard in one or two suits, thus providing declarer with a missing trick. More complex types may involve 3 suits, both opponents, different kinds of guards and repeatability elements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A squeeze play usually requires the &#8220;count&#8221;, i.e. declarer needs to win all the remaining tricks. Less often, a squeeze can operate without the count, i.e. declarer still has a loser after executing the squeeze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other day, while playing a 3-deal MP tournament, I encountered an interesting situation in which a squeeze has operated with 2 losers still out. As dealer, holding the following cards, I opened 1&#x2660;.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Capture-decran-1-Aviram.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84068\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:400px;height:undefinedpx\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-cd660d8\" data-block-id=\"cd660d8\"><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-cd660d8-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-f5ed203\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"f5ed203\"><style>.stk-f5ed203{align-self:center !important}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-f5ed203-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-f5ed203-inner-blocks\">\n<p>With opponents silent, Partner responded 2&#x2663;. I like to rebid 2NT with those balanced 12-14 hands, but that would show 15-17 in our system, so I rebid the &#8220;default&#8221; 2&#x2660;. Partner rebid 3&#x2666; and although not very happy with my &#8220;empty&#8221; heart stopper, I concluded in 3NT.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>West led the &#x2665;4 and the dummy came down:<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2-Aviram.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84069\" style=\"width:700px;height:undefinedpx\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>As I suspected, it would have been better to play from Partner&#8217;s side (although it is unclear how to get there since he himself has no real heart stopper).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hopeful, I tried dummy&#8217;s 10 and to my relief, it held as East played the 2. I assumed that East&#8217;s card showed count, so West had likely led from a five-card suit headed by AJ. I could count 3 top spades, 2 top diamonds and two heart tricks. That is 7. Spades could provide 1 or 2 more tricks. Clubs and Diamonds might each provide 1 more trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It seemed natural to first try the Spades. I played the K and followed with another one to my Q. Opponents followed, West dropping the J on the second round. That was nice. The contract was assured, but as this was a MP tournament, overtricks were important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I saw no reason not to continue cashing my spade winners and I might gain some information from opponent&#8217;s discards. On the next spade, West discarded the &#x2665;3 (confirming his original 5-card holding). I discarded a club from dummy. On the next spade, West discarded the &#x2666;2. I discarded another of dummy&#8217;s clubs. On my last spade, West discarded the &#x2666;8. That might be a clue. I didn\u2019t think West, with a possible safe heart discard, would let go a diamond guard, so I believed that the diamond Q was with East. I discarded one more dummy&#8217;s clubs (a diamond may be later needed for communication) and East&#8217;s first discard was the &#x2666;5.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That was now the position and it was time to reflect:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/3-Aviram.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84070\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:700px;height:undefinedpx\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>I had already taken 6 tricks. I believed that the diamond finesse was on, so I could take 3 more diamond tricks. I could safely develop one more heart trick. That made 10 tricks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What about Clubs? I couldn&#8217;t tell who had the A. If it was with West, I could develop a club trick for a total of 11. But there was a problem of tempo. West still had 3 Hearts. If I then played the &#x2665;Q, he would win it and continue with a heart, developing a heart trick that he could take later if he entered with the &#x2663;A. That would be the defense&#8217;s 3<sup>rd<\/sup> trick, leaving me with just 10. Similarly, if I entered my hand in Diamonds and tried a club towards dummy&#8217;s K, that would develop a second club trick for the defense, even if West held the A (and two others). So, it seemed that I might have 11 tricks, but the defense had the tempo to take 3 first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here came the squeeze\u2026 What was West going to discard if I played Diamonds? Let&#8217;s watch. I played the &#x2666;9 to dummy&#8217;s A, both opponents following, then a diamond to my J. West was on the spot. That was the position with cards revealed:<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/4-Aviram.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84071\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:500px;height:undefinedpx\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>After South&#8217;s &#x2666;J, West had to part with his third card in either Clubs or Hearts. Whichever suit he picked, it would have left him with just 2 cards in that suit, thus no threat of a second trick there for the defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>West actually discarded the &#x2665;8. As a result, I played a heart. West took his A and continued with his last heart. A club towards dummy gave me my 11<sup>th<\/sup> trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I managed to lose 2 aces only. 11 tricks were a top score as even 10 were worth 72%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although involving a &#8220;special&#8221; squeeze play with 2 late tricks to lose, the deal has an &#8220;ordinary feel&#8221; to it, making one wonder whether those positions are quite common.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-d300e2e\" data-block-id=\"d300e2e\"><style>.stk-d300e2e{height:15px !important}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-divider stk-block-divider stk-block stk-1066bbf is-style-bar\" data-block-id=\"1066bbf\"><style>.stk-1066bbf hr.stk-block-divider__hr{background:var(--paletteColor1,#00A336) !important;border-radius:calc(3px \/ 2) !important;height:3px !important;width:10% !important}<\/style><hr class=\"stk-block-divider__hr\"\/><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-e8d5a3e\" data-block-id=\"e8d5a3e\"><style>.stk-e8d5a3e{height:10px !important}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-columns stk-block-columns stk-block stk-65996cc\" data-block-id=\"65996cc\"><style>.stk-65996cc{border-radius:0px !important;overflow:hidden !important;box-shadow:0 5px 5px 0 rgba(18,63,82,0.035) !important}.stk-65996cc > .stk-separator__bottom svg{fill:var(--paletteColor1,#00A336) !important}<\/style><div class=\"stk-row stk-inner-blocks stk-block-content stk-content-align stk-65996cc-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-column stk-block-column stk-column stk-block stk-5ff40d5\" data-v=\"4\" data-block-id=\"5ff40d5\"><style>.stk-5ff40d5{align-self:center !important}@media screen and (min-width:690px){.stk-5ff40d5{flex:1 1 66.7% !important}}<\/style><div class=\"stk-column-wrapper stk-block-column__content stk-container stk-5ff40d5-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks stk-5ff40d5-inner-blocks\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the concept behind community articles?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Would you also like to write an article?<\/strong>&nbsp;At Funbridge, we like giving our players a voice.
