near end north plays A♣ if they duck how can 6♠ be made. GIB says it can.

I'm not sure I understand the question. N ducks, E wins ♣K and ducks a club. The next club is ruffed in dummy and W has two good clubs.

Thanks Lycier, As Antrax says, you make 12 tricks by ruffing a ♣ after losing the ace.

it may seem obvious now but we are trained to make our hand the winner and to try and set

up tricks in our hand vs the dummy. The technique of making the dummy good (this is not as

common due to the fact the dummy is normally short of entries) is called a dummy reversal.

You just added one more weapon to your declarer arsenal keep up the good work:))))))))))))))))
