When West continued with the ten of clubs Declarer stuffed a Diamond from the table and won the King As East again played Low. Next came four rounds of Spades. East could afford to pitch a Diamond on the third Spade but he was in trouble on the last round of the suit. If East discarded heart Declarer would win four heart tricks with the help of a finesse. But a club discard was no better. Declarer cashed the King of hearts finessed the Jack and took the Ace. Now East was thrown on Lead with the last heart. He could Cash his remaining High club but he was then forced to concede a trick to Dummy s King of diamonds. That was the ninth trick for Declarer.
