Will you always lead the unbid suit?

Good luck!

SouthWestNorthEast
-1♦Pass1♥
Pass1♠Pass3 NT
PassPassPass


 Your choice:
A: ♣3 - You will not always lead a Club on this sequence, but here, you have a choice between the minors. Lead the one they have not bid, even though East has a Club stopper.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 2

  Your Hand
♠ J 4 3 2
♥ 8 3
♦ A 5 2
♣ J 10 9 7 		 
Q: 2 - What do you lead as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
-1♣Pass1♥
Pass1♠Pass3 NT
PassPassPass


 Your choice:
A: ♣J - Even though West opened 1♣, you should lead them. A Diamond lead from Ace-third would be really risky.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 3

  Your Hand
♠ J 7 4
♥ 8 7 5
♦ K 6 2
♣ A J 8 5 		 
Q: 3 - What do you lead as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
-1♣Pass1♥
Pass1♠Pass2♥
PassPassPass


 Your choice:
A: ♥5 - You don't know what they have in Diamonds, but if West has some Hearts, declarer will be able to take ruffs in the short hand.

Lead a trump to be sure this doesn't happen.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 4

  Your Hand
♠ 8 5 2
♥ K 10 5 2
♦ Q 8 5 4 2
♣ 6 		 
Q: 4 - What do you lead as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
---1♣
Pass1♥Pass1♠
Pass3♠Pass4♠
PassPassPass


 Your choice:
A: ♣6 - Lead your singleton, even in East's first suit. Remember, he could have only three Clubs.

You want to ruff a Club before declarer can draw trumps.

Your result so far:
Open Question

Question 5

  Your Hand
♠ 6 5 4
♥ 8 2
♦ A Q 10 2
♣ Q 8 5 3 		 
Q: 5 - What do you lead as South?
SouthWestNorthEast
---1♦
Pass1♥Pass1♠
PassPassPass


 Your choice:
A: ♠4 - Look at the bidding. They have stopped in 1♠, and you have a lot of Diamond honors sitting behind East.

Declarer will probably try and go for a crossruff. Lead a Spade to limit the amount of ruffs he can take.

Your result so far:
Open Question
