lead=giving an example? lead: related to fishing? lead: lead atom? Was he somehow dependent of her? Did he need a lead? Or was it not necessary for him to follow her lead? Did she want him to die? Did she knew the outcome of giving that lead when she gave it? Did he physically die? | ||

Is it relevant which card game it is? Is it bridge? (I don't know how to play bridge!) Did they use standard rules? Is the lead that the 1st player plays a suit, and others have to play the same suit? How far had the game progressed when he died: End of round Entire game ended Game start Middle of game Did he die because: accident someone killed him Was the reason he was killed because he lost? Won? Because the outcome of the game caused him to display certain behavior, which got him killed? | ||

Do we need to know the rules of the card game? Is betting involved? | ||

Was he playing bridge? and his partner killed him in a fit of temper over his (the dead guy's) bad play? I've a feeling i read of such an incident once . It may have been a man and wife but I'm hazy over the details | ||

Well, Peter pretty much said it, so here is a... **********************SPOILER******************** A man was killed by his wife over a contract at bridge that he lost. Which led me to wonder, what if the opening lead by the opponents had been different? He might have made the contract and lived! Story here: http://www.snopes.com/luck/bennett.asp | ||
