So he must go right up with the ace in dummy and then cash the king of clubs, being careful to drop the six spot from his hand, 10 conserve an entry into dummy. The king of diamonds is the next play. East has tipped his hand off by the double, so he may as well go up with the ace, which the declarer trumps with the seven of clubs.
 The eight of clubs is played next and wins with the jack in dummy. On the queen of diamonds. the de- clarer discards the eight of hearts.
 A small heart is led and won with the ace and then. small spade played. The queen is played from the dummy, East wins with the king, and returns the king of hearts, only to have South trump with the nine of clubs. +
 The deuce of clubs is played and won in dummy with the four spot. Now all the declarer has to do Is lead a spade, finesse his nine spot, and the contract Is made.
