 After winning the second trick your main aim now is to set up dummy’s clubs while you still have the trumps as entries to the suit. At trick three play a club to the King, which holds and another club which West wins. When he plays another Heart make sure you are not embarrassed. Since you are so well endowed you can Ruff High. Now play a club and ruff that high. When the clubs break 33 it is now a matter of drawing trumps and if need be draw three rounds ending in dummy, when the trumps break 3:1. Now you will amass 1 Spade, 4 trumps only, 1 Diamond, 1Club, 1 Club ruffed in the long hand and 2 established Clubs, losing just three Aces.
