This
deal is from an EBU duplicate where there are over
100 pairs competing.
West
led a low heart against three diamonds, won by the
ace in dummy.
South
now played a spade to set up spade tricks, also
attempting to get an entry to hand so that he could
play the first diamond from hand in case West held
singleton ace.
West
won the spade ace and persevered with hearts ruffed
by South who then played a diamond to the jack and
another diamond won by West, who exited with a spade
won in dummy. South ruffed a heart back to
hand, drew the last trump and played a club to the
queen. Now a heart ruff set up a long heart
trick and South had the remainder, making eleven
tricks for a 88% score on the board. Most
declarers in diamonds only made ten tricks when they
didn't set up the long heart trick.
