AFTER THE FIRST TRICK
After you have led and have won the first trick, examine the exposed hand carefully; then either continue with the suit led originally or lead through strength.
LEADING THROUGH STRENGTH
The beginner will appreciate the fact that strength in a suit consists of high cards, but is apt to find the term "leading through" difficult to understand. Leading through means to make a person play second in hand to the trick. You always lead through your left-hand adversary.
The object of leading through strength is to help your partner make his high cards by giving him the advantage of playing after the exposed hand.
Holding a sequence of two or more cards, headed by a Queen, Jack, or Ten, when there is an honour in the dummy it is good play to lead the highest card. If the dummy does not cover this lead, it gives your partner an opportunity to pass the trick.
Holding one or two high cards of dummy's strong suit that are not in sequence, avoid leading the suit. Wait until dummy leads to you.
Don't lead through strength when dummy holds a sequence of three or more cards, as
| A | K | Q |
| K | Q | J |
| Q | J | 10 |
Holding a high card or cards in a suit in which the dummy is weak, avoid leading that suit. Try to put your partner in the lead, so that he may lead it to you.
Holding no high cards in the suit, the following combinations should be led through:
| A | Q | x |
| A | J | x |
| A | x | x |
| K | Q | x |
| K | J | x |
| K | x | x |
| Q | x | x |
Holding a sequence of two or more cards the following combinations should be led through:
| K | x | x |
| K | x | |
| Q | x | x |
FORCING
Judicious forcing will do more than anything else to break up a strong trump hand.
Forcing means making a player trump—the object being to weaken his hand.
It is good play to force the strong trump hand.
When the strong trump hand holds no more cards of your long suit, do all damage possible with it. Unless trumps are out, the suit is of no other use to you.
It is bad play to force the weak trump hand. Unless you can make the strong hand trump it is better to stop leading the suit.
Do not lead a suit that will allow the weak hand to trump and the other hand to discard; the adversaries take the trick and get rid of a losing card.
It is too late to force when the dummy has an established suit and the dealer has the last trump or trumps. Make what you can before giving up the lead.
When the weak hand can ruff your suit, it is sometimes good play to lead trumps; but only when, in doing so, you are leading trumps through the strong hand, and when you have some protection in the other suits.
SHORT SUITS
There are two lines of play that may be followed to make tricks against the dealer. The first—to make your high cards—has been explained. The second is to make your small trumps by ruffing.
When you have no high card lead, or if you are anxious to be led up to, it is often good play to throw the lead and, at the same time, to try to make your small trumps. This can be done by leading a short suit.
