After the customary motu about hard luck, Joe made un effort to save the slam from the wreckage. He ruffed a heart, entered dummy with n
spade, ruffed the last heart, cashed the last spade and went after the club sult. If West had to follow to three clubs Joe would have made the hand, but West ruffed the third club and got out of trouble with his fourth heart.
As usual Joe had munufge- tured his own hard luck.
It is loud to find all four trumps bunched against you, but Joe could have guarded against this with a simple safety play.
