Usual Disclaimers on Statistics Apply

Unverified statistics on the opening lead from Orlando Pairs events. Data from WBF may be wrong. No checks have been made that the original data is correct. In Wroclaw 2016, we found that 13% of all opening leads were wrong (i.e. the lead was not from a card held in the opening leaders hand - either it was incorrectly entered or the declarer was incorrect). Use of a posteriori data to claim a priori information. Use of repeating data within the data to enforce conclusions. Well aware of the multitude of other reasons that this is not statistical valid material.

But this is all supposed to be Fun with Leads so ignore the statistical disclaimer!!
