A quick hand combination

Here's a quick first problem:

How do you play 10 9 7 6 opposite A 4 3 2 for only two losers? You may assume plenty of entries to either hand.

  1. The hunch is 10 from the hand (run), I guess the hunch is correct (covers singleton 8 on the right and single honour on the left).

    1. Yep, not some horrible problem that take a page to explain the answer to. :)
      This line beats just playing the ace only by picking up the singleton 8 offside.
