Of course, the play revolves around the club suit. There are two lines. The first is the technical line, whereby you play a club to the nine. If the deep finesse should lose, you return to the South hand and lead another intending to finesse the queen. So you make the slam whenever the clubs are three-two and when West either has the king or both the jack and ten.
