Has anyone got any suggestions as to how to solve this one ? I seem to be having problems again, or does everybody else find it straightforward ? |

All you need is a triple (or hidden pair). |

I still havn't gotten this one figured out. The hint of a "5" in Row 4, Column 3 has me stumped. I see other possibilities for '5' in Row 4 and Column 3 to be able to make that leap.
Back to work.
Followup - Okay. I'm trying to do all my puzzles now using the Draw/Play feature. It's not always as obvious to me viewing things on the screen. I now see the hidden pair consisting of 2 and 8, in R4C2 and R7C2. |

Hidden pairs often can be spotted easier without pm's:
*----------------*
|__2|86_|___|
|___|1__|_8_|
|_3_|__5|1__|
|----+---+----|
|3__|___|41_|
|_4_|5_7|_3_|
|_91|___|__5|
|----+---+----|
|__9|3__|_6_|
|_1_|__4|___|
|___|_78|2__|
*----------------* |
