Deal 12     1♣ Dbld	♠ 6 5 2 ♥ 9 5 3 2 ♦ A 6 4 ♣ 9 4 2		Lead the ♣5. There is only one reason partner would pass your takeout double - he has a great ♣ suit and he expects to inflict a large penalty. What he wants do do is pull South's trumps so your high card winners don't get ruffed by South. The way you can help him do that is to start with a trump lead. With the trump lead South might not make more than three tricks.  Deal 13
