Quite a rare squeeze position I encountered yesterday. Cards modified for ease, South and East don't count.



When North plays his A, West is squeezed:
- on a discard declarer wins K and A
- on a discard declarer wins AQ
- on a discard declarer plays to West and takes the finesse after West is obligated to return the suit.

I guess it's some combination of strip and stepping stone squeeze, any ideas?

It's a straight strip squeeze, if W had a small heart and E the A it would be an absolutely standard strip squeeze, but it's essentially the same position.

Can't be a stepping stone, the characteristic of that is to use an opponent to get you to the other hand when you can't do it yourself.

vulnerable stopper squeeze. The king is vulnerable and the squeeze card removes an excessive winner. Works when loser count is more than one generally to gain one trick.

Should be a throw-in (two loser squeeze) : the squeeze card gets out the exit card in West (heart Ace) then King spade for Ace and West must gave a trick in club.(Lovera)
