Pass Pass What do you lead?
ANSWER: Lead a spade. You should try to put your partner on lead so that he can play hearts through Declarer's King. If you give up a heart trick; Declarer will probably be able to run off enough tricks for game.
Score 100% for a spade, 40% for heart, 0 for any other lead.
QUESTION NO. 355
