A K Q 5 2

If on board 10 the lead is then North has no chance.
If on board 11 the lead is then West has no chance.
After A K West has to ruff the Q and can go to dummy with K
The play 4 is for the K from North.
He plays a small to the Q from South
When South plays another a spade trick will promote in North/South.
Nice to play this with open cards.
What do we learn from this all?
Lead more often the colour from your partner.
Greetings from Louis, the dutch player.
