 He led the club eight to the sec- ond trick and now North did little figuring himself. He could lose trump trick now and still make his contract, as then no more than one trick could be cashed. Preferrtng safety to possible overtricks, he won with the ace and led a spade and finessed the nine which East won.
 East cashed the queen of hearts and then led @ club, but North ruffed and picked up the trlimps, thus making his contract. The early generosity paid rich dividends.
