One Of the difficulties OF avoiding tenace
suits OF not more than four cards and one
that should be foreseen from the start is that
you will probably deceive your partner II you
lead a plain suit and he does not know enough
% see that you, want him TO lead you some
thing else. II the adverSaries open the suit,
can he be trusted to see that it Is your suit.
although they play II? II your object IN avoid
ing the lead from the tenace suit in the first
place was to get the advantage OF position, 1t
Is foolish to abandon that OBJECT in the middle
OF the hand by leading away from the tcnace,
Just because you don't seem able to get it led
up to you, unless 1t becomes evident that your
partner must be the one that hol the
cards you want to tin"sso against Another
points that as the value Of Il tenace lies in its
possibilities for successful ,inesse. you must
be prepared to make these illnesses equally as
second or third hand. With strong trumps or
good protection in other suits many common
se So players make it a rule to flnesSe down TO
tho 10 from y 10. even third hand but the
cards led by partner will often be the best guide
as to how deep to 60.
As an example Of a hand which mhodies all
three of the principles We have enumerated in
