The Play West's opening lead is the queen of spades, and when it holds, the jack of spades la continued, which South wins with the king.
The entire play of the hand de- pends on how South plays the hearts. if ho lead the jack of hearts, and West holds a heart, they may be able to defent-the con- tract.
The proper play is to lead a small heart and finesse the queen. A small diamond, la returned and the jack is finessed.
Another heart is played, West plays low, and the declarer goes right up with the ace in dummy. He lends back another diamond, Anessing the queen.
Now a small club is played and West must split his honours, so he puts in the jack and the trick is won in, dummy with the aco. A diamond is returned and won by the declarer with the acc.
Wost now must make a discard, and the only discard that he can make in the six of spades. To drop a heart or a club would cost him tricks.
