You find yourself in 4H after the following auction:
1H - 1S - 2S - 3S
4C - p - 4H - all pass
LHO leads a spade to the jack and your queen. You cash the ace of hearts and RHO plays the queen. What now?

More specifically, the way the spade suit and the trump suit interact with each other on this hand is pretty interesting.

The problem is that this is MPs and a chance to win 11 tricks would be great.

Thanks Actually I asked my mother-in-law a few moments after I clicked "add reply" and she filled me in on what I was missing.
I guess that's why I really suck at MP games... I have a bit of tunnel vision when it comes to making my contract.

I have nothing to add to this thread. I just wanted to welcome you to the Forums, Kivgaen. Hopefully reading some of the threads here will broaden your vision.

You will go down after they take their AD and cash the 3rd S.
