You are sitting West and, after the auction above, you must choose the opening lead. Make your choice... but not before looking for some key clues that will make all the difference!


Sometimes you need partner to lead a suit through a vulnerable honor in declarer's hand or dummy and you cannot attack the suit profitably yourself. How do we find that entry in partner's hand?


That clue might just be revealed by the way declarer is playing the hand, and it is crucial for you to take advantage of that information!
