Had Declarer timed the hand correctly, playing for either B spade or a heart break, but not both, he would have been success- ful. The opening heart lead should be won in dummy, the Ace of spades played and then the King of clubs. East would" now make his best return a trump, and Declarer after drawing two more rounds would still have two trumps left. Two rounds of spades would remove one of West's stop- pers, and a third spade lead would establish the suit before Declarer ran out of trumps. Thus Declarer could hold his losses to two spades and one club trick by proper timing.
