Play the board of the day:
West led with the ♣3 against 6♠. What is your looser?
Now, let's take a look at how Nafiz played this board 5 from the Day 1:
After winning the first trick in dummy's hand, Nafiz played the ♥10 to try finessing the ♥Q. Recognizing that the ♥Q could be the potential loser, because he could then use the remaining Heart tricks to discard the Clubs. Interestingly, the ♥Q was held by East, so his finesse succeeded, allowing him to win all the remaining tricks and score an additional point for this hand. Did you plan to play the hand in the same way as Nafiz did?
