his contract was to find West with both kings. The nine of hearts was returned and won by the de- clarer with the ace. He took two more rounds of hearts, picking up the outstanding trump, and dls- carding two spades from dummy. West let go a club.
Declarer led two more rounds of trump, West discarding the four and eight of diamonds, while de- clarer discarded the three and five of diamonds from dummy. It is immaterial what East discarded.
The queen of spades then was led. Of course If West had cov ered, the hand would have been made. But West refused to cover, playing the seven, and the ten was played from dummy.
The five of hearts was led and West was squeezed. If he ̈ ̈ ̈üls-" carded the ten of diamonds, declarer would make the nine of diamonds. If a club was discarded, the declarer would make the queen of clubs, while if a spade was discarded, the duclarer would make the jack of
