    Adventures in Bridge Leaders in Bridge Entertainment and Education www.advinbridge.com This Week in Bridge (210) Which Honor to Cover or Capture © AiB Robert S. Todd Level: 2-4 [email protected] General Which card to play in a particular situation can be a difficult decision for a defender. The technical details of card play are a large and complicated subject, but we can look at one very important situation on defense to help improve our game - when to cover an honor! At first glance, it seems that we have a simple rule, “Cover an honor with an honor,” but unfortunately this is a bit too simplistic. Let’s take a look at when this rule applies and how best to actually use it. Promotion – Cover an Honor to Create More Winners Level 2 The reason that we attempt to capture or cover an honor with our honor card is to promote the cards under that honor into winners. Example 1 – Covering an Honor Qxx Kxx When the dummy has a holding like Qxx and you hold the King behind it, then if declarer leads the Queen, generally we should cover with the King. This is an effort to promote the Jack and/or Ten which, if we cannot see either in our hand or the dummy, we hope are in partner’s hand. Example 2 – Covering an Honor When There Are Choices QJx Kxx If we can see the Jack, like in this example, then we do not need to cover the Queen, because we can cover the Jack later, hoping to promote partner’s Ten.

  • Hold-Up Plays by Ed Rawlinson
    Hold-Up Plays by Ed Rawlinson The primary purpose of hold-up plays is to control transportation between the opponents’ hands. You can utilize a hold-up play as declarer or as a defender. The following hands illustrate typical situations. 1. ♠-xx ♥-Qxx ♦-KQJ10 You have 6 immediate tricks (1 spade,3 hearts, ♣-xxxx & 2 clubs). You have 3 potential diamond tricks after you knock out the ♦A. Your problem is that when you knock out the ♦A, the ♠-Axx opponents may cash enough spades to set you. If the outstanding spades (there are 8) are ♥-AKx divided 4-4, they will only get 1 diamond and 3 ♦-xxxx spades. But if the spades are divided unevenly, ♣-AKx you might lose more spades. If the same opponent has the ♦A and the long spades, there South is declarer at 3NT. West leads is nothing you can do. However, if the ♦A is the ♠K. Plan the play. with the short spades, you can prevent the opponents from cashing all their winners. If Skill Level: Basic you hold up taking your ♠A until the third round, then you will make your game when the opponent with the ♦A started with only 3 spades. The full hand: There is a “rule of thumb” about hold-up ♠-xx plays. It is “the Rule of 7”. Count the ♥-Qsx cards you and dummy hold in the suit led ♦-KQJ10 and subtract from 7. The result is the ♣-xxxx number of times you should hold up. ♠-KQJxx ♠-xxx Sometimes it is not possible to follow the ♥-Jx ♥-xxxxx rule.
