Against a four-spade contract, West opens the queen of hearts, which South wins with the nce. South, plays a small spade and goes up with the king in dummy. Would you win this trick with the ace? If so, the declarer can drop the jack and make his contract.
Try this play the next time you are confronted with this situation. Play a low spade on the king.
Now the declarer will think that West holds the ace of spades and will return a small spade, which East must duck.
Ilere is about what will go through the declarer's mind. He
