Sometimes our holding allows us to finesse against the same opponent card multiple times.

This happens when we have equivalent threat cards in the same hand.

Our threat cards are Q and J.

Lead 2 and play Q.

If Q wins, then later lead 3 and play J.

Note that finessing only once gains little, since we can make two spade tricks without finessing.
