Crossing Their Signals

 

Defenders help each other by exchanging count and attitude and suit preference signals, and a canny Declarer can confuse things by clever false-carding with the spot cards, making it difficult for the defense to determine what is a high spot and what is a low spot.  For example, if LHO's opening lead is the Ace of a side-suit, and RHO plays the discouraging Three, then, if Declarer would like that suit to be continued, he will withhold the Two and play a higher spot, leaving the opening leader in doubt as to the meaning of his Partner's Three.
