A look at some hands where you should aim to endplay an opponent, rather than trying a finesse
You can reply the hands with the following links:
tinyurl.com/2dcp4r54 - Based on the bidding the spade finesses are likely to fail
tinyurl.com/2xvmwraw - Same hand - but eliminate the club suit and throw in West.

You can also do this if you hold AQ9, rather than A Q 10 tinyurl.com/4y3mnu95
