==Examples== {{BridgeHandNWES |Label = |Lead = West to lead |—|—|A Q|6 2 |—|8|7 3|4 |—|—|K 4|J 10 |—|—|8 5|K 3}} West is on lead. If he cashes the high heart, a club is thrown from the dummy, and East is squeezed. Whichever card East discards, the declarer will take two tricks in that suit. Instead, West must lead a diamond to protect the partner from subsequent [[endplay]] (if he returns a club, the declarer will take the King and put East in with another club, forcing him to lead into {{diams}}AQ).{{Clear}} The most common position for a legitimate suicide squeeze occurs when a side suit is "tangled" (neither side can lead it without giving up a trick), and another suit is protected by the partner of the player on lead, as in the following [[contract bridge diagram|diagram]]: {{BridgeHandNWES |Label = |Lead = West to lead |—|—|Q 6 2|— |—|8|J 8|— |—|—|K 4|7 |—|—|A 10|3}} West is to lead; if he leads a diamond, it will "untangle" the suit for the declarer, who will take two diamond tricks. However, when he leads the high heart, he induces a [[simple squeeze]] on his partner, who must either discard the high {{clubs}}7 or unguard the diamond king. (Dummy has an idle card, and East is to play before the declarer.) Again declarer will take two tricks. {{clear}}
