This will be the first new hand in chapter 4 of the identifying squeeze blogger book, assuming I can get the template thing working as I know it should. This is a typical compound squeeze where save 7 spades was bypassed to play in 7NT.

Looks good - does it not?
Encountered any problems?
The format looks great. The odds for making 7N on a heart lead don't.
Hi Len
While you are correct, the contract is unmakable on a heart opening lead, i think if you look at the hand diagram, you will see that the opening lead is specified as a diamond. This is found in the upper left hand corner after dealer and vulnerability.
OF course a heart lead removes an entry necessary for the compound squeeze to work. One could give East a spade more, and south a heart more to make it "cold". But this was a real world hand, not something contrived.
