The first tip I will give you is that West's opening lead is the queen of spades. Now, if you have spent two hours on the problem and have not found the solution, I will tell you that it consists of a coup and double-squeeze play. The following Is the solution, as given in "Chatter." The queen of spades is trumped by South with the deuce of hearts. fie then cashes dummy's ace and king of carts and the ace and king

Declarer leads the seven of hearts. West has to keep the lack of spades; otherwise he will establish dummy's elghi-spot. He throws the jack of clubs, and decturer then discards the eight of spades from dummy. Now East is squeezed. If he discards the declarer's four- king of diamonds, apot will be good. If he discords the nine of clubs, South will lead the five of clubs two tricks in dummy with the aco and six of clubs,
