As it was two no Trump was a reasonable Compromise despite being a Little off shape. North chose a sequence that showed a 3-1-5-4 hand pattern and South opted for the higher scoring Spade slam. As the cards lie six clubs would have been a claimer but the Spade slam was better since had clubs been 4-1, there would have been no Way to avoid two losers in that suit. Declarer won the opening Trump Lead in hand and continued with a Spade to the Queen to learn the bad news. After coming to hand with the Ace of diamonds Declarer returned a Diamond and the Jack was finessed successfully. Next came a Low Diamond and when East discarded a heart Declarer ruffed Low. After cashing the Ace of hearts and ruffing the Queen on the Board Declarer led the King of diamonds and East was helpless. If the defender ruffed Declarer would discard a Chib win any return draw the last Trump and discard the remaining club loser on the Long Diamond. If East did not Ruff Declarer would simply play the other Diamond and discard the other club loser. Either Way the defenders could not get More than one Trump trick.
