Not wishing to lead away from his heart tenace, West opened the nine of spedes, which East won with the King. Feeling taat a diamond lead up to dummy’s ace-ten was too risky, East returned a heart, and when West ducked, dummy'’s queen won the trick. Declarer then played a spade to his jack, and when that was allowed to hold, he led a club and finessed dum- my's jack, the first bad guess. East led his last heart, which West won. On the ace of hearts East signaled the eight of diamonds, and West promptly played the jack. This was allowed to hold, and West then put declarer in with the king of hearts, dummy disregarding the ten of dia- monds. When declarer led another club, West won with the ace and cashed his fifth heart. Dummy at this point was down to the queen-ten of spades, the s:e of diamonds and the king of clubs. De- clarer, who hoped that West held only one more spade, discarded the ten from dummy. West then cashed two spade tricks and now dummy was again squeezed.
