Before making the next play, let's take Inventory, Declarer has lost club. If the trumps break, he then has only two diamond losers. But suppose the trumpa don't break-ho would have * trump loser and, if Weat holds the four hearts, two diamond losers:

Declarer seca that the danger of the hand lies in the fact that West might get in with the fourth heart. He plays the ace of hearts from dummy and, when the nine drops from the East hand, he is warned that he may find bad distribution in trump. The six of hearts is played next, Weht follows with the four and, if declarer takes this with the king, his contract is de fented, because West will get in with the jack of hearts and lead a diamond, and declarer will then have two diamond losers,

Declarer must make a safety play at this point and play a low heart, allowing East to win the trick with the ten. East at this point returns n spade, which declarer ruffs with the seven of hearts. He picks the two remaining trumpa then lends the king of clubs. drop of the eight of clubs by West had marked him with only two clubs.
