North South |
Declarer won East's spade honour with the
King and played a diamond to the Ace. West
showed out! Now declarer ruffed out the hearts
finding them 3/3 and took the spade finesse.
Unfortunately East had QJx and could punch
the table to establish a trump trick. One
off.
In the other room on a heart lead, there
was no losing option in the spade suit. Declarer
went for the hearts straight away and then
ruffed ot the spades. There were still enouigh
trump entries on the table to play winning
cards through East's trumps. Contract made.
The first trump was fatal.
