If you keep your Cool you often can find an alternative line to land your contract. A a a a a when either the closed hand or Dummy has a ruffing value a major suit game of a 4-4 fit a usually preferable to three no Trump. But when the double ton in one or both hands is Well guarded that is not always the Case. Here North South reached four hearts after locating a 44 fit when ten tricks were there unless the opponents started diamonds and could Cash four or five fast tricks in the suit. Declarer won the club Lead in Dummy and Learned the bad news when a Trump to the Ace fetched a Spade discard from East. With three sure losers in diamonds Declarer could hot afford to have a Winner ruffed and South thought it made no difference in what order the top cards were cashed. Declarer started by going after Spades. Unfortunately West ruffed the third Spade Down one. Declarer started off Well enough but should have cashed no More than two rounds of Spades. Next come the remaining High clubs. If West ruffs the third club Declarer Over ruffs draws Trumps and claims 10 tricks five Trumps three Spades and two clubs. If West follows to three founds of clubs Declarer discards the Jack of Spades from the table and then ruffs a Spade on the Board. This Way Declarer amasses five Trump tricks two Spades and three chips. West a fifth Trump and East a third Diamond take the same trick.
