Entry Squeeze (Unblocking Squeeze) - A squeeze which forces defenders to discard seemingly
low cards in a suit, yet allowing the declarer to subsequently overtake
cards in a given suit.
East lead
D3, ducked
twice to break opponent communication, won on the third
trick by South's DA.
Declarer is light on winners, the
1 Diamond,
2 Clubs,
4
Hearts, perhaps 1 Spade - 1 trick short of game. Declarer takes the
first seven of these tricks (but not the Spade).
Declarer exits
with a Club, hoping West will provide an entry. Fortunately for
declarer, West must take the CQ, squeezing East for the extra
trick needed to make game.
