made a nice play to complete hia contract....
When you look the hand over, you will tell me the contract can he defented, but how many players will make the play to defeat it? Let's just analyse the play.
The Play
When West opens the queen of diamonds and East plays the nine, you know that East has either one more or none, so of course the first thing you have to do is to pick up the trump. Unfortunately, that takes four swings of trumps.
After the four rounds of trumps. you lend three rounds of hearts and then play the king of diamonds. At this point East must be careful to retain his jack of hearts and discard a club,
Now the decinrer's in the lead. He has the eight of trump, the losing six of diamonds, and the two and ten of clubs. Should he lead the ten or the deuce? If he leads the ten, West. will cover with the king and, when a club is returned, East will win with the queen, exit with a heart, and South will still have the losing diamond.
Now, the proper play is to lead the deuce of clubs, True, if West goes up with the king the contract is defeated, but that is a double

dummy play. Naturally, West is going to play the three of clubs and you play the nine spot in dum- my. East wins the trick with the queen,- returns -tho-jack-of-hearts, and Weat Anda himself squeezed.
He has to let go the eight of clubs. All the declarer has to do now is to lead the ten of clubs, overtake in dummy and discard the losing diamond on the last club.
