South could count four heart tricks, two spades and two clubs, but the ninth trick might prove ekisive since it appeared more than likely that East, who had made a vulnerable overcall, would hold the diamond Ace. However, the Declarer was a versatile player and he saw a way to make his con- tract if East held no more than two clubs.

East was thrown in with a spade and after running off four tricks, had to concede the last trick to

dummy's diamonds.
