- This game has some possibilities although one
- never knows what what the enemy has in store.
-
- I just might be able to make game if the double
- finesse in spades works.
-
- When there are two missing cards in the suit, and
- partner has the top card and two other honors, a
- double finesse is possible if you have two cards.
- Just lead your lowest card and play to beat
- second hand with the lowest honor. Of course,
- whether you win or lose, run the finesse in the
- same direction again.
- The probabilities are:
- 25%, left hand will have both missing honors.
- (You will take at least 3 tricks in suit)
- 50%, the two missing honors will be split.
- (You will take at least 2 tricks in suit)
- 25%, neither honor in the left hand.
- (You will take 1 trick, the original ready cash)
