When declarer plays on Diamonds, don\u2019t forget to show your doubleton by playing the 8 and then the 3 (standard count), so that your partner ducks once and then wins the second round of the suit. Note that declarer has an elegant play available: when his Diamond King holds at trick two, he crosses to his hand to play a Diamond towards dummy and so West can\u2019t be sure of your Diamond length. Your 8 could have been a singleton, in which case he would have to hold up his Ace a second time. In the given example, even holding up a second time would limit declarer to eight tricks provided you play an honor on the first round of Spades so as to avoid any possibility of an endplay.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/funbridge.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/Diagram-Fin-EN-HTN-1024x971.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-84906\" style=\"width:400px\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-spacer stk-block-spacer stk--no-padding stk-block stk-de56dad\" data-block-id=\"de56dad\"><style>.stk-de56dad{height:0px !important}<\/style><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-stackable-blockquote stk-block-blockquote stk-block stk-4c1419e is-style-highlighted\" data-v=\"2\" data-block-id=\"4c1419e\"><style>.stk-4c1419e{box-shadow:0 5px 5px 0 rgba(18,63,82,0.035) !important}<\/style><div class=\"has-text-align-left stk-block-blockquote__content stk-container stk-4c1419e-container stk--no-background stk--no-padding\"><div class=\"stk-block-content stk-inner-blocks\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon stk-block-icon stk-block stk-6802ec9\" data-block-id=\"6802ec9\"><style>.stk-6802ec9 .stk--svg-wrapper .stk--inner-svg svg:last-child,.stk-6802ec9 .stk--svg-wrapper .stk--inner-svg svg:last-child :is(g,path,rect,polygon,ellipse){fill:#f7d9d9 !important}<\/style><span class=\"stk--svg-wrapper\"><div class=\"stk--inner-svg\"><svg style=\"height:0;width:0\"><defs><linearGradient id=\"linear-gradient-6802ec9\" x1=\"0\" x2=\"100%\" y1=\"0\" y2=\"0\"><stop offset=\"0%\" style=\"stop-opacity:1;stop-color:var(--linear-gradient-6802-ec-9-color-1)\"><\/stop><stop offset=\"100%\" style=\"stop-opacity:1;stop-color:var(--linear-gradient-6802-ec-9-color-2)\"><\/stop><\/linearGradient><\/defs><\/svg><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 50 50\" aria-hidden=\"true\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"><path d=\"M19.8 9.3C10.5 11.8 4.6 17 2.1 24.8c2.3-3.6 5.6-5.4 9.9-5.4 3.3 0 6 1.1 8.3 3.3 2.2 2.2 3.4 5 3.4 8.3 0 3.2-1.1 5.8-3.3 8-2.2 2.2-5.1 3.2-8.7 3.2-3.7 0-6.5-1.2-8.6-3.5C1 36.3 0 33.1 0 29 0 18.3 6.5 11.2 19.6 7.9l.2 1.4zm26.4 0C36.9 11.9 31 17 28.5 24.8c2.2-3.6 5.5-5.4 9.8-5.4 3.2 0 6 1.1 8.3 3.2 2.3 2.2 3.4 4.9 3.4 8.3 0 3.1-1.1 5.8-3.3 7.9-2.2 2.2-5.1 3.3-8.6 3.3-3.7 0-6.6-1.1-8.6-3.4-2.1-2.3-3.1-5.5-3.1-9.7 0-10.7 6.6-17.8 19.7-21.1l.1 1.4z\"><\/path><\/svg><\/div><\/span><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-103d573\" data-block-id=\"103d573\"><style>.stk-103d573 .stk-block-text__text{font-size:16px !important}@media screen and (max-width:999px){.stk-103d573 .stk-block-text__text{font-size:16px !important}}<\/style><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\"><strong>The principle: <\/strong><br><br>One of the keys to an effective defense is to understand the mission of a card such as the Heart 10: is it offensive or defensive; is the plan to set up tricks or to hinder declarer establishing his?
