Playing
a suit contract
There are several lines of play in suit
contract and there are very different ways to make use of trumps:
1. Preventing opponent to run a
side-suit (Control of the hand; trump-control)
2. Using shortness in dummy or
declarers hand in side suits to ruff your loser (PLAN #I)
3. Special examples of Plan #I
4. Using length in dummy to set up a
side suit.(PLAN #II)
5. Using trumps to prepare a
elimination.
Before drawing all the trumps be aware how many of them do you need to
ruff, and to draw exactly so many trumps as you need. Opponents will try to spoil your game by
leading trumps themselves or by forcing you. To cover all these problems is one
of the mysteries of suit-contracts.
REMEMBER:
The A of a suit is a very useful card. You can control the suit. Don't play the
A without reason.
