- In general when partner leads the king in no trump
- he/she wants to know if you have the A,Q,or J.
-
- To show the honor, I play a high card. With no
- honors in my hand I play my lowest card.
-
- Situations where this applies include:
- 1. Dummy plays the ace (or keeps the ace) and I
- have a high card I want to show partner.
- 2. The play of the queen under the king to show
- the jack(NOTE: THE QUEEN IS PLAYED AND NOT
- THE JACK).
- 3. In short almost anytime I have a high honor, I
- show a positive attitude.*
-
- *If the dummy has a long suit(5 or more cards),
- my play of a high card may be the top of a
- doubleton. With a doubleton if my honor is higher
- than dummy's honor, I play low.
