Deal 1     3NT OL: ♠J	♠ A Q 4 ♥ K 8 3 ♦ K 9 5 ♣ J 6 3 2		Play the ♦2. Considering that South opened 1NT, he must have the ♦Q for this play to make sense. So if you put on your ♦A, South will have TWO ♦ winners established. If instead you play low, then South cannot get a second ♦ trick and will have to look elsewhere for his ninth trick. As you can see, he is not going to be able to find it.  Deal 2
