Something like this came up on BBO and I (south) was in 3NT. A club was led. I have 8 tricks (if H finesse works) and the only chances of getting a 9th involved losing the lead (setting up hearts or trying a diamond finesse) so I thought I'd lead a spade, and when I lose the lead, maybe they'll be afraid to attack it. So I did ... and the ten won! haha! Took clubs then H finesse, for 9 tricks. I wonder if this happens often? Attacking your worst suit so the opps will think you are trying to set up tricks there?

Haha. This reminds me of Kilo's rule.
Kilo's rule = Attack your weakest suit first + Every card is a false card
Kilo is a classmate of mine.
