North has two spade tricks and four natural trump tricks. Say east wins, and crosses to the club ace. Suppose west exits in diamonds, north covering. If east ruffs high, south has two trump tricks. If east ruffs low, south overruffs, takes his hearts, then exits in spades or hearts, north ruffing with the ten, promoting a second trick.
Similar promotions occur if west exits in spades or hearts.
