The lesson in words
You’re leading, and nobody has played a heart yet. Hearts aren’t broken, so you can’t lead one (unless you have nothing but hearts).
Try it: Tap every card you may lead.
Now someone has discarded a heart on another suit.
Try it: Tap every card you may lead.
Hearts open up once one has been played. Next: shooting the moon.
