"West opened the jack of din- monds, and South won with the ace. He promptly led a heart to dummy's king, and returned the ten of spades from dummy to take the trump finesse. West won with the king of spades and returned a heart, knocking out dummy's ace.

"The contract now depended on the success of the club finesse. South drew the rest of the trumps, winding up in dumuny with the nine of spades. He then led the queen of clubs from dummy, hoping that this finesse would succeed. However, West won with the king of clubs, and the defence promptly eashed one heart and one diamond, setting the contract.
