#10: An Unusual Carding Problem
North's 2♦ was a positive response, showing at least an ace, a king, or two queens.
Sitting west, your lead of the ♠ is taken
by south's 8
ace
. Declarer cashes the ace
and king
of clubs, noting your discard. Then he plays the ten
of spades
to dummy's queen
as partner follows low, and runs the club
ten
. A fourth round of clubs to the queen
drops partner's
jack
. The spade king
is cashed, upon which partner discards
the ♦ to this position:2
,
South now leads the jack
of spades. What do you discard,
and why?
