Singleton Tens
Martin Tompa
A few deals later, you run into another interesting late endgame.
Tibor: (19 points)
♠ A
♥ —
♣ AKQ
♦ JYou: (26 points)
♠ T
♥ —
♣ T
♦ ATQTrump: ♦
Stock: Exhausted
Game points: Tibor 5, You 6
On lead: You
This is another of those endgame situations with the stock exhausted. This one looks worrisome. You have gotten stuck with two singleton tens in suits where Tibor holds the aces. To make matters worse, he has the club marriage in hand as well. See what you can do. When you have made a plan, you are welcome to read my analysis.
