card suits the one beow your shortest suit should be ud first- tsaj east and i had a problem i could not make a takeout double since i was so short in hearts i would really like to show my spades but i didnt want my partner to lead spades the clubs looked very nice but i have never overcalled on a four card suit i finally bid two clubs so that my partner might have a suit to lead to i could always bid spades later souths leap to four hearts closed out the bidding with bis solid six tricks in trump this was a good call maybe west would have led a club anyway i dont mow but after easts bid there wis no doubt after the club lead de clarer did not have a chance west led the club nine and de clarer played the five on the second club led declarer dropp ed the ten while west played the tour since west would lead low from four clubs declarer is known to have another a third club was taken and now the stage was set declarer appears to have 10 tricks once he gets the lead there are 6 trump tricks three spades and the diamond ace one trick disappeared when east led his last club declarer chose to play east for the heart ten and took a discard west ruffed with the 10 for the setting trick even if declarer ruffs high the four one trump split now defeats the contract maybe the next time i have ace long queen and jack of a suit ill overcall again and see what happens last weeks winners at the
