| Example A – Grand‑Potential (♣‑short) | Example B – Null‑Potential (♥‑balanced) | |----------------------------------------|------------------------------------------| | : ♠ A K J 10 9 ♣ Q J 10 9 ♥ K 10 9 ♦ K Q 10 9 | Hand : ♠ A 10 9 ♣ K J 9 ♥ A K 9 ♦ 10 9 | | Skat : ♣ 9 ♦ 9 | Skat : ♠ 9 ♥ 9 | | Key issue : The ♣ 9 is the only low club you can safely dump.
