发帖数: 20570 | 2 Suppose Ace from AK, it's impossible to play west for SQT8 or KT8 since he
knows to play ST in this situation, so you can play west for 8x, duck the
next round if east plays ST or SQ. Of course, if you suspect that west holds
KQ8x or KQ8, you can also try to play SJ, the better your opp is, the more
likely that SJ may work. However, SJ may lose when LHO holds T8x in a silly
way (also, if A shows AK, it's quite unlikely that LHO doesn't bid over your
1H opening with SKQ8(x)). so I still think low is a good play. Also, for
holdings like T8x, you can survive even if east holds DK.

发帖数: 1295 | 3 Agree, 8 is probably from T8/T8x/T8xx/T8xxx which is more likely than KQ8/
KQ8x.
Also, playing T from QT8 or KT8 is not necessary. When partner holds K/Q, he
needs another entry to capture declearer's 9, which seems impossible for
this deal.

发帖数: 2804 | 4 West won't play T from QT8 or KT8. There is no entry to East hand to lead S
through, so with QT8/KT8, West should play S8 anyway, hoping that you
somehow guess wrong and put in SJ.
Your reasoning for playing low from dummy is sound. The real question is
what do you play if East now plays SQ. If you duck, you lose when West
indeed led from KT8. If you win SA, then maybe West did have 8x only, East
just false-carded from KQTxx.

发帖数: 20570 | 5 I have said it clearly that I duck the first trick over east's T or Q. I don
't buy the concept that west won't play T from QT8 or KT8 in the real play.
West doesn't know the situation in S and S8 may create a natural trick for
you if you hold A9xxx. It's unlikely, but it's still possible after
semipsyche opening from A9xxx QJxxxx Jx - . If you think few would open 1H with this hand, you can ask wimptb, I think he opens hands like this with1H for some times. I myself may also open it, because pass can be more risky in many situations.
Also, after showing DA and DK, it's often right not to play west to hold SK, because with 10 HCPs, he may often overcall or make take out doubles.

发帖数: 623 | 6 I thought you would know me better -- this would be a 1H opening for me at
any seat and vulnerability at ANY time, not just some times. I'm not kidding
or psyching at all -- if pd pushes me to a slam, this would usually be
playable.
with this hand, you can ask wimptb, I think he opens hands like this with1H
for some times.

at 4th.

发帖数: 20570 | 8 My first version was "wimptb opens 1H with hands like this all the time".
Then I think that this claim can be an overbid. So I modified it to some
times to be conservative.
