West got off to a trump, lead, a South won in his own ne idea hand with the ace of hearts, cashed the king of spades, got to duminy with the ten of Hearts and discarded a club on the ace of spades, then drew one more trump and went after the diamonds in the hope of Ketting 3-3 brepk,

South should have tried for a dia- mend ruff In dummy.
The correct play la to win the Arst trick with the Bee, of heurts, cash the king of spades, and then take the ace of diamonds and give up à diamond. East would win the djumond and return trump to South's Rig, whereupon South would lead diamonds for the third time.
There was nothing wrong with this ping if the diamonds happened lo break 3-3. The advantage lay in the fact that even though the diamonds able
