    Answer:

    1. Teams: 6NT at both tables. As West, Can you make when the other table's declarer goes off?
      You get the lead of the C10, whereas the other table received a low diamond.

      J 6 4          A K 8 5
      A K J          Q 6
      6 3 2          A K J 5

    2. As West, can you make 4S after the following bidding?:

      W    N    E    S

                     (3D)
      X   (P)   4D   (P)
      4S

      A J 8 5        Q 9 4 2
      K 10 5         A J 9 8 4
      5 3            10 7
      K Q J 4        7 5

      North leads the DK. South overtakes the king and cashes the DQ. South now plays C8, CK from West, to North's ace. Another club (10) comes back and you win with the jack, South playing the 3.
