In response to West's double, East elects to bid his four-card heart sult. West's opening of the ince of hearta is unfortunate, as It sets up three heart tricks in dummy.

When West shifts to the queen of clubs on the second trick, South wins with the ace and now he has to try and get into dummy as he has three good heart tricks there.
