Today we will consider leads against a ne trump declaration.
When partner has bid and your strength in hand contains any partner's suit, it is generally good bridge to open this suit. The ex- ception, of course, is when you have a strong suit of your own
Balkris re-entries. Remember that Amoy with you are endeavouring to attack the Bombay enemy and it is useless to open anton
Hankow suit of your own without re-entries, phong because you may establish it and Honolulu never get in to cash in the estab-toon lished cards.
