Lead any ♠.
You have ♦ winners, but dummy will surely be short since he has at least 8 cards in the Major suits. Partner has whatever ♥ strength your side possesses. It is very likely that declarer will want to do some cross-trumping. To try to cut that down your best lead is a trump. Just imagine that declarer wins the first ♠ in his hand and plays a ♥ to dummy's honors. East will win and play another trump. Whenever you win your first ♦ you will play your last trump. As you can imagine, declarer will be in a whole lot of trouble. Deal 7 |
