In order to make this contract you will
have to set up dummy’s Hearts and leave sufficient entries in dummy to enjoy the
Hearts. After ruffing the first Club ruff a low
Heart. Now enter dummy with the Trump Queen in order to ruff another low Heart
delighted to see both opponents following confirming Hearts no worse than 4:2.
Now it’s a matter of drawing the remaining trumps and re-entering dummy via the
Diamond Ace to enjoy all the remaining Hearts in dummy from the top. You will make 1 Club ruffed, 2 Hearts
ruffed, 5 further Hearts, 5 trumps, and the Ace of Diamonds (14 tricksJ).
Pity you weren’t in 7
