Play the ♥2.
East's ♥Q is either a singleton, (practically impossible), or a signal showing that he also holds the ♥J. In either case you can reach the East hand on the second trick by playing a low ♥. Since you don't particularly want to start playing ♦s from your side, you go ahead and play a small ♥, won by East with the ♥J. East next plays the ♦Q and however South tries it your side will take the next two ♦ tricks and set the contract. Deal 13 |
