Now, with the apade led by West, deglarer reasoned he must try to ruff a diamond. So his next play, was the king of diamonds. Enst won the trick with the ace and fomediately returned a trump. ;
Declarer's only hope now was to try for squeeze. He led the queen of trump and picked up West's last trump. A small heart was played and the ten from dummy finessed, East winning the trick with the queen. East re- turned the ten of diamonds, which | South won with the jack.
Declarer then took three rounds of trump, discarding three clubs from dummy. Eust discarded heart and the queen of clubs, but on the last trump he was squeezed If he dropped a diamond, declarer's queen-seven would win, while if he discarded small heart, the de- clarer would coah his queen of diamonds and win the Inst two tricks In dummy with the are and jack of hearts:
