Class No. 2 – Wednesday, April 8

Leading Against Suit Contracts – Should you be the bull or the bear?

When making your opening lead against a suit contract, a major concern is whether to initiate an ‘active’ or ‘passive’ defense. The auction helps you decide … are you listening to the opponents? They are telling you about their hands and they are telling you the winning defensive strategy. In addition, we continue the discussion about “standard leads” … what are they?, why make standard leads?, etc.

At the conclusion of this class participants should know:
  1. Difference between ‘active’ and ‘passive’ strategies and when to choose.
  2. When you should lead trump.
  3. How to use clues from the auction.
  4. How to defensively evaluate your hand.
  5. How to choose the right suit and right card.
