T1: K, 4, 7, 2.
T2: 5, 8, A, ?

Whatever you think of the bidding, you might have bitten off more than you can chew here. What's you plan to limit the damage?

I am going to hope the opps cant guess how ugly things are and give
them a chance to make a mistake:
trick 2 I am ruffing the spade
trick 3 laying down the heart K.
I am hoping for an opp to win the A and continue with a :safe: spade.

trick 4 assuming spade back ruff
trick 5 club to A
trick 6 spade ruff

At this point I have scored 3 small trumps and the club A I still have the club
K and heart Q and trump A left for 7 tricks and have salvaged some mp.


IMO we just cash out and hope for the best.

If opps duck heart K at trick 3 I will continue with heart Q (and if that is also
ducked we can start looking to make this :))))))))))
