{Holding a hand with 9 HCPs, East knows that partner will have a maximum of 6
HCPs and probably less. The heart suit headed by the broken sequence \HKQ10
looks to be the only realistic chance of defeating the 3NT contract, so East's
opening lead is \HK.

Against no trumps the \HK lead promises either \HQJ or \HQ10. West should play
\HJ under \HK so that partner knows to continue playing hearts.

East continues with \HQ and \H10 to force out declarer's \HA and will get back
in with \DA to make two more heart tricks taking the contract one down.}

declarer has 12-14 HCPs, dummy 14, North has 7 so South has 5-7.

If declarer held \DA he would probably play dummy’s \DQ to try for an extra

expecting to win the trick and then returns \D10 to unblock the suit.

South wins \DA and another four diamond tricks, so the contract goes two down.}

East estimates his partner's possible HCPs: declarer has 12-14, dummy 13, East
has 9 so West has 4-6.

The rule of 11 suggests \S8 was not a fourth highest lead, so East should
switch to leading his fourth highest \H4.

When declarer plays \HJ, West should win \HA and return \H10 to unblock the
suit. Declarer should allow \H10 to win the trick but must take \HK when West
leads \H3.

East will eventually get back in with a diamond to take the contract one down

Declarer plays dummy's \C8 at trick 1. The \C6 looks to be a fourth highest
lead so South can subtract 6 from 11 to deduce that there are 5 clubs higher
than \C6 in the other three hands. Those can all be seen in dummy and South, so
declarer doesn’t have a club higher than \C6. This means that South can win the
trick with \C9, then return \CK followed by \C4.

North will eventually get back in with his \HA to cash his remaining clubs, so
the contract goes one down.}

{Declarer has bid clubs so West should not lead \CJ. Best lead looks to be
fourth highest \H6 as there is more chance that East can help in that suit, and
it also keeps \SA as an entry if an attack on hearts is successful.

By subtracting 6 from 11 East can work out that the other three hands have 5
hearts higher than \H6. He can see 3 of those in dummy and in hand, so declarer
has 2.

East’s \HK drives out declarer’s \HA leaving the defenders with three heart
tricks and \SA. However, declarer can still make nine tricks if he drives out
\SA before cashing his other winners.}

choice must be one of the minors. There is a good chance that South may have a
diamond honour and it also means that \CA can be retained as a possible entry,
so \D3 looks to be the best lead.

South can see 4 diamonds higher than \D3 in his own hand and 2 in dummy, so
declarer must have the other two in a probable holding of \DAx2.

This lead should restrict declarer to eight tricks for one down. Any other lead
may well allow him to make his contract.}

{West can lead a spade, his longest suit, but with no entries he will need a
very favourable spade layout to set up and cash the suit. More likely, a spade
lead will only succeed in opening a frozen suit (as here) and giving declarer
his ninth trick.

A diamond lead is likely to be passive, with just the chance of setting up a
length trick.

On a diamond lead declarer will struggle to find a ninth trick and may well go
one down.}

{This time North has two potential entries to the spades, making a lead of \S3
far more promising.

The defence can set up and enjoy 3 spade tricks before declarer can establish
his clubs to take the contract one down.}
