But you can't afford to pitch any of your losers. You must keep them all to carry out all your threats. So you ruff in dummy and overruff in hand. Draw two rounds of trumps. Cash KD. Play JD and overtake with the Q. East must duck both or the diamond suit sets up. Now a low club off dummy. Cover the QC or finesse the JC. Either way the defense can not take more than one more trick. The club suit sets up for a diamond pitch. I received correct solutions from: houxz!halle1 sdcrdcf!shaprkg mit-eddie!gs
