Now don't tell me you failed to find the heart lead? Maybe you need to sharpen up and work on your game a little. The heart lead combined with the 4-1 club break completely butchers the communications. Our hero at the table was none other than former European Champion Roman it's-my-turn-to-bid-so-it-must-be-4club Smolski. When he's at the table anything can, and usually does, happen - and not just down at the local club. He produced these gems in the World Championship Pairs!
