What is a "finesse"?
In card games like bridge, a finesse is a technique used to win a trick by playing a card that may not be the highest in a suit, but has a good chance of winning based on the placement of the other cards. This strategy is often used when a player believes an opponent has a higher card in the suit, but there is still a chance that the player's lower card can win if the higher card is held by a different opponent or is played incorrectly. Finessing involves carefully choosing the right moment and card to play in order to maximize the chances of success.
