The dummy goes down and in a side suit you have:

Dummy:   A 7 6 2

Declarer:  Q J 5 3

How do you play this suit to maximize the tricks you take?  Think about it….

If you said you should lead the Q or J or lead towards the Q or J, then you need to take this module in the course of which you will learn how to play card combinations properly to maximize your chances of getting that extra trick. The module will start with simple finessing situations and advance to frozen suits, safety plays, and more complicated plays that require knowledge of card distribution percentages. The course is suitable for all novice and intermediate players. Register at the club, send an email, or call 519-578-4434. The cost is $15 ($20 for non-members).

PS if you attend, you will learn why playing the ace at trick one is the correct play.
