some other ?r.'t in which you '
have more cards. The declarer
can road it as a singleton as well
as your partner can. So upon
winning the trick, he probab . *
will run trumps and then the side
suit, discarding on it the losers of
other suits. That probably would
happen with hand No. 3
But if you have two or three
trumps headed by the A, when,
the declarer starts to run trumps,
you can win and then have a
trump left for ruffing after you
try to put your partner in the
lead with some other suit. So a
singleton lead figures to be good
from hands Nos. 2 or 4. But it
would not be good from No. 5,
because if your spade K won the
second round of trumps, you
would not have a trump left for
ruffing. A low club should be led
from No. 3 or 5.
One other time for leading a
singleton is when any other lead
would jeopardize an honor, as in
Hand No. 6.
