Four Steps to Take with Any Suit Contract

1. Count your trumps: find out how many your opponents have and then count backwards to get rid of them.
2. Count losers : remember the long side of the trump suit is your base.
3. Find ways to reduce your losers : trumping in short hand, discard them or use techniques like finesse.
4. Communication: make sure to keep access (usually to the dummy) so you won’t end up with tricks you cannot win.

After watching the video above, try playing all four hands for one of the boards below:
