Bridge Deal of the Week (Apr 28 2006)

Problem:
North   East   South   West
            pass    1NT     pass
2C       pass    2S        pass
4S       all pass

This week's deal is a defensive problem. You hold the East hand, and remain silent as opponents reach 4S after a standard Stayman auction. Plan your defense after partner leads the ♣2.

Hint:
Partner's ♣2 lead is an obvious singleton. Since dummy is pretty strong, you cannot expect partner to hold any high cards. You will score the ♣A and the ♠A, and you can give partner a club ruff. Do you see where the setting trick will come from?
