Count and Attitude
Playing both - I've been told that if one plays reverse attitude one also needs to play reverse count.
Does anyone have an opinion about that please?

Yes I have an opinion
Theres no logical (or legal) reason why they should be the same except in the interests of simplicity
The definition of "reverse" for count is arbitrary anywayPersonally I prefer to play reverse attitude on partners lead but standard attitude for discards
Off the subject a bit but that is to allow a non-commital discard
If I have the King in two suits I want partner to lead the one he has the Queen in
and not try to guess which one that might be - hence a non-commital (low card) discardcheers

Count? Who plays Count? Who teaches Count?
Look at Teaching, Improvers, Lesson 8, 3C. Count? You must be joking?

Stanley I think you mistakenly thought this was the Teaching forum
It is Master Solvers
cheers

Sorry about that, Nick.
Trying to stay slightly on track, what is your method regarding a Doublton? Do you lead a high one or low one? Do you use the same method if partner is on lead?
What I see from inexperienced players, is that they play high low from doubltons, yet say they are playing reverse attitude. I don't really know if that is correct, particularly if they don't play count, and not playing count is very much the norm, where ever I go in NZ.
