Bridge Deal of the Week (Jan 06 2012)

Problem:

The Auction:

North is playing 6♠. East, who has solidly passed all through the auction, leads the ♥3, so right in the beginning you are faced with a dilemma: to finesse or not to finesse?

Hint:

Although an old bridge proverb tells us never to accept a finesse offered by the opponents, this might be a case of Bottom Of Something type lead.

A small card led -- Bottom Of Something -- signals that the leader has a useful high card in this suit.
