Jenni Carmichael and Greg Humphreys won the Mixed Pairs at the ACBL Spring NABC. In today’s deal, Humphreys as West found the best opening lead of the entire 10-day tournament.South’s jump to 2NT was bold. According to Carmichael, Humphreys judged from his partner’s silence in the auction that she lacked a good suit with which to overcall. (East-West’s style was quite aggressive in competition.) Humphreys suspected that dummy would have at least one four-card major suit; hence he judged to lead a diamond even though North had bid that suit.NORMALAssuming you choose a diamond lead, the normal card is the three. But Humphreys feared that leading low might pickle an honor in the East hand; hence he came forth with … the jack of diamonds!You can see what that lead did to declarer.

But declarer played differently and went down two, minus 200.Only the lead of the jack of ...
