There was a hand that I had seen many years ago and the theme was quite uncommon. I believe I saw it in a book, not sure.

What I remember is this :

- You are South, declarer in a decent game and opening leader (West) makes the sole lead to cause you any trouble
- You do your best and at some point pass the lead again to West, who causes you more trouble with a fine play
- In the last 3 or 4 tricks you need to guess correctly to lose only one trick in a suit with KJ in dummy (you have two low in your hand)
- The question is, do you play to the K or the J
- The answer lies in the fact that West's great defence could only be possible if he was looking at the high missing cards - so you should play West for the A and put up dummy's K

If anyone can remember this hand, I would appreciate if he can point me to it.
I write some unusual articles about bridge in my bridge blog.
