Type of lead in game of bridge
In bridge, the Deschapelles coup is the lead of an unsupported honor to create an entry in partner's hand; often confused with the Merrimac coup, the lead of an unsupported honor to kill an entry in an opponent's hand.
This sacrificial play was invented by Alexandre Deschapelles, a 19th-century French chess and whist player ,[1] [2]
