Declarer put up the queen of hearts at the first trick, covered by the king and ace. South led a spade to the ace and returned the nine of spades to ruff. East played a low spade without giving himself away. Smith got to dummy with a trump and ruffed another spade, for the third time. This time the king fell, so South could lead a trump to dummy's seven to get rid of his losing heart on the last spade. Declarer then led the ten of clubs from dummy for a finesse. West took the king of clubs and cashed a heart trick. South's pondreous plan to get rid of a heart was no good because It also got rid of all of his trumps.

If East plays a low spade on dummy's queen. South discards his losing heart. The queen of spades wins, and South continues with the same plan. Even if West had the king of spades. South would be safe. He would have no further heart to
