Oren's Double Dummy Challenge - 17**

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 - 17**


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

















Solution: 







Contract: 7♠. Lead: ♣K. Difficulty: **Medium.

Win with the ♣A, finesse diamonds to the J, cash the K, play the A, enter dummy with a trump, discard your last heart from hand on the A, ruff a heart with a low trump, enter dummy with another trump and ruff a 3rd heart with the ♠A.

You have now reached this position:




Play another trump to dummy, drawing West's last spade on the way, throw your 2 club losers on dummy's K10 and ruff the last club in hand.

Well done to everyone who solved the problem!
