Giving partner a slam signal on 4 trumps headed by a card lower than the Q was rather ambitious, as South might have been bidding upon a 4- card suit. The opening lead was the 9 of clubs.

For all that the declarer knew the lead might have been a singleton, so he dared not try to establish clubs until he had tested the trump situa tion, although lie expected to find the average trumps held 2-1 by oppo nents. Dummy’s 4of hearts was led. East’s 9 covered, and declarer’s K won the trick. West discarded the 7 of diamonds. Finding that he must lose a trump trick, and that, his only chance of net losing a spade trick was to es tablish dummy’s clubs, the declarer started a cross-ruff. He led afdia mond. Dummy trumped.
