to make the If we cash the ace and king of spades, when ponents get in with a heart they could cash the queen of spades.
Thus we have nine tricks, but we have to walch the timing to cash all of them.
So, for winning the second diamond with the ace in dummy we should cash the ace of hearts, go over to the nee of spades, and play a low heart. Then regardless of what West plays we play a low heart from dummy. If West plays the nine, East will win with they ten, return the five of 'dlamends,
