Re: if what

So I weight the score for finding the queen, not finding the queen, and giving up on finding the queen? Look at declarer's ability level (to find the queen) and the opponent's ability level (to play in tempo)? I told the player that he should have said he was thinking about a different problem. So then it would be me deciding how well declarer could read that?
