Scoring: IMP

West North East South
 -     Pass  Pass  2NT
 Pass  3♣    Pass  3♦
 Pass  3♠   Pass  3NT
 Pass  Pass  Pass  

This is a hand i played on BBO, my partner, west, leads ♠ against this 3NT contract. At first sight, i thought ♣ lead would beat it, but later, i found it unbeatable.
And, more interesting to me, the ♣ suit combo is almost the same as one deal in Julian Pottage's book <Play or Defend>. I just started to read it some days ago.

Is it so logical to put a low card in dummy at trick 1 when LHO leads ♣4? DD you're right however :)

Not at all logical I would have thought.

I am happy to let GIB and Deep Finesse make these ones.

Yes, i did find this play when i was checking the hands with GIB.
I posted it becuase it just appeared after i had got to know this blocking technique from books.
