Double Dummy Challenge #16***

The rules are simple. You get the contract and the lead. You may look at all cards and play accordingly (you are always South). However, the defense can do the same, and they never make mistakes. You must find a way to make the contract against any defense.

Oren's Double Dummy Challenge - 16***

You are playing 7♥. West leads the ♦K. You must make your contract against any defense. Good luck!
---
*** Difficulty level: Hard.
















Solution: 





Contract: 7♥. Lead: ♦K. Difficulty: ***Hard.

Throw a club form dummy and win with the ♦A. Finesse heart as cheaply as possible and ruff a low spade with the ♥J. Finesse heart again and ruff another low spade with the ♥Q. Finesse heart once more to reach this ending:




Play the ♥A and the ♠AK and discard the ♣AKQ from your hand. Dummy's clubs are high.

Well done to everyone who solved the problem!
